Majority supports the abolition of fur farming
A majority of the population agree with the government’s move to ban Norwegian fur farming, according to a poll.
The measurement is done by the Sentio Research Group. It was carried out after the Right, Frp and Left agreed to settle Norwegian fur farming in the new Government Declaration that is to take effect by January this year.
Fifty-two percent of the respondents believe that it is right to ban Norwegian fur farming, while 38 percent think otherwise.
The result is roughly the same as in a similar survey conducted by the research group in November 2016. However, the figures show that the gap between town and country in the view of fur farming is increasing. City inhabitants have become the strongest opponents of fur farming, while the resistance of the people living outside of cities are reducing.
