    IFFO reports lower fishmeal production in the first seven months of 2022

> IFFO reported that total cumulative fishmeal production for the first seven months of 2022 was slightly lower than in 2021, as Peruvian output dropped on a smaller quota for the north-central area. Fish oil output was in line with 2021, and raw material usage in July was 42% higher year on year. China's marine ingredient production and imports are expected to rise in September.

## Why it matters

Lower Peruvian fishmeal output tightens global supply, which supports fishmeal prices, while expected rises in Chinese production and imports could partly offset that tightness.
