    OA show ('918 '); [global demand for fish meal continues to grow] fish meal is a protein containing a variety of vitamins, calcium, phosphorus and amino acids, so it has been used as the main raw material of feed protein From 1992 to 1999, the average annual output of fish meal in the world was 6.36 million tons (the lowest was 6.22 million tons in 1995, and the highest was 7.19 million tons in 1999) Due to the expansion of feed demand, the growth momentum of fish meal demand is slightly greater than the production capacity, resulting in the price increase of 8% - 10% per year, from $450 per ton in 1992 to $890 in 1999 It is expected that in the next 10 years, the international market for fish meal will become more tight and popular The first reason is that Peru, Chile and other countries in South America have implemented policies for the protection and sustainable development of marine fish resources, which limits the production of raw fish The second reason is that the impact of global climate anomalies on the natural climate of major fishing grounds in the world also leads to the decline of raw fish Therefore, the international price of fish meal will gradually rise because the demand is greater than the supply But by 2005, as the production of fish meal in Chile, Peru and other countries returns to normal, the price of fish meal will remain relatively stable, but there will be a small increase of 5% - 8% KPB China feed industry information network KPB (author:)
