Argentine squid landings fell by half, and prices have risen recently due to insufficient inventory!

 

　　Zhoushan Port's recent wholesale quotations for deep-sea fishing for Argentine squid are as follows:

 　　It is understood that so far this year, China's southwest Atlantic high seas squid fishing boats have reached 326 (excluding 26 fishing boats in Argentina), the number is basically the same as last year, and the average yield is currently generally 150-160 tons, a good 250-260 tons.
ton, the average output was slightly lower than the same period last year
.
It is reported that the first domestic ocean-going refrigerated carrier Ning Tai Leng 8 (mainly loaded with fish from Shandong ocean-going enterprises) loaded with new Argentine squid this year will arrive at Shidao Port in Shandong on around the 26th of this month

　　According to the analysis of senior industry insiders, with the gradual recovery of the domestic and foreign markets, the price of Argentine squid will rise this year compared with last year
.
First, because the fishing boats in Argentina have not been fishing for a long time, it is still difficult to determine the level of output
.
Second, because the squid fishing boats that entered Yuma Island (Falkland) in Taiwan region of China just started fishing on February 15 this year, it remains to be seen whether the production is good or bad

　　At the same time, the Argentine squid in the high seas fishing grounds this year was later than the same period last year, and there were fewer fish in a large area, and the fishing situation was relatively complicated.
In addition, the Ministry of Agriculture and Rural Affairs of China strictly enforced the corresponding fishing boats.
One nautical mile outside the exclusive economic zone of other countries Due to the restrictions on fishing in the buffer zone, some people in the industry believe that it will be a good result if the yield of fishing boats on the high seas this year can reach the level of last year

In the past two years, under the background of the impact of the epidemic and the rebound of international oil prices, the comprehensive cost of squid fishing on the high seas such as fuel costs, freight and wages, ship repairs, etc.
has risen sharply.
The rebound has finally brought a piece of good news to the worried fishing industry
