Adex: Trout Exports fell 43.8% to September

Between January and September this year, exports of Truchas fell 43.8 percent, the Exporters Association (Adex).

The exporter guild explained that the fall to lower production and higher domestic consumption of that kind should be.

“La mayor parte de las empresas que se dedican a la crianza de Truchas son pequeñas. Ellas han preferido desviar gran parte de su producción al mercado interno porque el precio de exportación es similar”, Marianella said Hernandez, Manager of Services and Extractive Industries Adex.

He explained that gutted Trout in wholesale markets is between 11.5 and 12.5 dollars per kilo in supermarkets costs between 14 and 15 soles per kilo.

Such shipments totaled just over $ 4 million, a figure lower than the same period of 2013. He added that Puno, Junin and Huancavelica, are the main production areas, but others are being developed in Cajamarca, Pasco and Ayacucho.
