Elena Conterno: In 2014 fishing in Peru have its lowest level in 15 years

2014 will be a year to forget in the Peruvian fishing. According to the President of the National Fisheries Society (SNP), Elena Conterno, the result will be the lowest in the last 15 years.

Conterno said weather conditions were not the best for fishing during 2014, which would make the result of the production of this sector to fall to 40% by year end.

"The 2014 unfortunately going to be a very bad year. We had the first season midwest where only 68%, the southern 6%, making a cumulative 2.2 million tons, which puts us in the lowest place in the last 15 years was captured"Dijo Conterno.

However, the holder of the SNP expressed optimism that the fishing activity recovers in 2015 because better conditions is already observed in marine resources.

Thus said the recovery next year could cause the output to reach 50% growth, because it is part of a much lower base. "We hope that the weather is on our side next year and regulation as well," he added.

Precisely on the regulation, Conterno said the Supreme Decree 005, which prohibits industrial fishing in the first 10 miles of the Peruvian sea, was considered by the Supreme Court unsubstantiated.

Even a Macroconsult study noted that the increased standard black fishing and was not fulfilling its goal of increasing direct human consumption. "In that sense we hope you have a review", He said.

Conterno participated in the Fishing Day organized as part of the COP 20 event in which 10 games between the Ministry of Production and the main actors of fisheries in Peru will be signed.
