# El Niño phenomenon: which foods have risen in price the most?

> Retail prices in Lima's Bolívar market rose for several foods, with sole (lenguado) reaching 100 soles per kilo and corvina 60 soles, while bonito rose from 8 to 15 soles per kilo due to scarce fishing from warm waters. Chicken rose by about 1.5 soles and carrots now sell for 9 to 10 soles.

## Why it matters

Warm-water conditions from El Niño are reducing Peruvian catches, which tightens fish supply and supports fishmeal demand and prices. This consumer-level retail report is a local symptom rather than a new market-moving event.
