    First Peruvian anchovy fishing season ends with 98.1% of quota

> Peru's Ministry of Production reported that the first north-central anchovy season ended with 2,461,568 tons landed, 98.1% of the 2.5 million ton quota. The catch is expected to yield 696,300 tons of fishmeal and generated $1,065 million in fishmeal and oil exports. Landings were 4.1% above the first season of 2020.
