The source adds the following information: "Main occupation is a person who has an annual income from fishing of at least 100,000 Norwegian kroner. A person defined as working full or part time elsewhere cannot be a main occupation fisherman. A person is defined as working full or part time elsewhere if working hours exceed two-thirds of what is considered normal, the person is an employer within another activity than fishing, or earnings exceed 300,000 Norwegian kroner per year."
