An FX Agri analysis says Peruvian fishmeal sales pressure is high, with about 400,000 tonnes unsold after pre-sales of roughly 230,000 tonnes. Peruvian super steam-dried fishmeal CNF has fallen to about $1,650 per tonne from a $2,400 peak last year.

Heavy Peruvian inventory and cautious buyers point to softer fishmeal prices in the aquaculture season, though a small quota for Peru's next catch could reverse the trend.
