Fisheries contribute 1% of GDP this year

Elena Conterno, president of the National Fisheries Society (SNP), is more optimistic. Speaking to E said the Peruvian Sea temperature has been neutralized two months ago and allows greater reproduction Anchovies in North Central Region in southern stressing that the picture is even more encouraging, as drafts of the last measurement who made the Instituto del Mar del Peru (IMARPE) in the throw triple the volume ratio of two months.

EXPECTATIONS

The outlook is better, but when industrial Fisheries start?
Confident start fishing in February or early March. We hope it is normal for the fishing this year, we looked quite expectations that come from bad years and very bad.

Can not recover what was exported in 2014?
More. For example in 2012 were exported $ 2.3 billion, the previous two years (2013 and 2014) should be exported $ 1,700 million, we are talking about $ 600 million below. But consider that in Fisheries there is a lag because it is processed within a specified period; in general, what is fishing at year end is exported in the following year. Therefore, the impact of having no second season (2014) also reflect this year.

But it will be in the first part of the year…
Exactly, will be in the first part of the year, we expect compensation. Overall, Fisheries reflected in GDP in the current year but exports only the following year.

Being optimistic estimate how much export the Sector?
Much will depend on the time, but you could say that a normal year, Fisheries explains 2% of GDP. In 2014 we have been at 1% by the fall that occurred and we hope that this year, if we recover normal levels, we are talking about going back to 2%, which, 1 of the 5 points (the Ministry of Economy and Finance lowered its estimate to 4.8%) who wants to grow it would bring Fisheries Peru.

¿Would amount to $ 600 million more?
A level of exports probably yes, but the strong impact will be at the level of GDP.

How is the issue of control of the smaller boats?
It's something I hope will continue to strengthen. Unfortunately there continue to be allegations of illegal factories, Anchovy deviations should be for direct human consumption for the meal.

How Fishery these vessels would be leaving for -Mustard flour?
In 2014 it must be important because formal Fishing was very small, you have to control it. We understand that SUNAT are taking interest in supervising and salute you have this analysis because you have to see the traceability (tracking the volume provided by the Industrial Fishing versus exported Flour).
