Peru's forestry and wildlife agency Serfor, together with Senasa, Sernanp and fishers, held a joint session in Pisco on responding to a critical rise in stranded and dying marine fauna. Serfor attributes the die-off to warmer seas from El Niño, which pushed anchoveta and other fish south or into deeper water.
A health day is planned for November 27.
Anchoveta is the main raw material for Peru's fishmeal output, so displacement of the stock by El Niño tightens fishmeal supply and supports fishmeal and feed protein prices.
