Peru's production ministry authorized the start of the first 2026 anchovy season in the North-Central zone with a total allowable catch of 1.9 million metric tons. That is over 1 million tons below the 3 million-ton quota for the same season last year.
The early start was requested by industry worried about a possible coastal El Niño.
A much smaller anchovy quota cuts fishmeal and fish oil supply, which tightens global protein meal availability and supports fishmeal prices used in feed.
