HELSINKI, March 31 (Reuters) - The following stocks may be affected by newspaper reports and other factors on Monday:
SALMAR, CERMAQ, NORWAY ROYAL SALMON , MARINE HARVEST
The Norwegian government has awarded 15 so-called green salmon farming permits in a public auction. Salmar won eight permits and Cermaq won five, while Norway Royal Salmon and Bjoeroeya Fiskeoppdrett got one each.
The successful bids ranged from 55 million to 66 million Norwegian crowns ($9.2 - $11.0 million), resulting in proceeds of 904 million crowns.
The bids from Marine Harvest, the world's top fish farmer, were too low to win any permits.
A further 30 green permits will later be awarded at fixed price.

SCANIA
Swedish pension firm AMF said late on Sunday it had rejected Volkswagen's bid to mop up minority shareholders in truck maker Scania.
"We are aware of the risk of a short-term share price reaction if the bid isn't accepted in full, but our view is that the offer of 200 crowns per share does not reflect the company's long-term value," AMF said in a statement.
AMF and AMF Funds own shares equivalent to around 0.7 percent of Scania's capital.
