An important characteristic is the average weight, practically in all regions, decreased fillet stocks in slaughterhouses are also normalizing what was above, is commercialized. In other words, the market is good, the meatpacking company is buying and selling its product.
This is an excellent sign, native fish, a market that continues to be strong, similar to last year.
In just a week or two weeks, we will see a huge increase in demand, which involves purchases for fresh fish sales at markets and also in supermarkets during Holy Week. He's having a good harvest.
Launch of the 2024 fish farming yearbook
The most important thing of the week, we had, is the launch of the Pisciculture Yearbook, the launch of the Peixe BR yearbook two thousand and twenty-four, we grew and we grew by three points one percent, a very significant growth.
Brazilian production is now eight hundred and eighty-seven thousand and twenty-nine tons.
Tilapia, a growth of around five point two percent and native fish had another year of decline in production.
Now what we observe is that this year was a very big health challenge, especially for Tilapia production.
And climate issues have also affected not only the production of native fish, but also the production of tilapia.
