List of surveyed mitigation responses at a local / internal scale (i.e., farm-based and related to the supply chain; respondents were asked to report their preference, scaled from 1 = not adopted to 10 = very highly adopted) and list of surveyed preferences on national / external scale mitigation measures (scaled from 1 = not preferred to 10 = very highly preferred).

Mitigation responses at a local / internal scale	Social distancing (e.g., work shifts)	Increase work efficiency	Additional hiring (e.g., new professional profiles)	Firing personnel	Adoption of Integrated Multi-Trophic Aquaculture solutions	Changes in farm techniques	Reduction of farm size (e.g., number of cages or used surface)	Stocking solutions (e.g., freezing and smoking)
Preferences on potential national / external scale mitigation measures	Direct sales to customers	Fostering supply chains	Seeking new markets (e.g., canning industry)	Direct economic support (e.g., economic subsidy from regional or national bodies)	Exploration of new market strategies (e.g., online retail system and brand)	Direct support to scientists
