    Global fishmeal and fish oil production surges in 2024

> IFFO data show global fishmeal production from January to July 2024 rose about 36% year on year, driven by a strong first anchovy season in northern-central Peru. Fish oil output through July was roughly 10% higher, and Chinese port fishmeal stocks reached record levels in September.
