Produce launches "Sea of Opportunities" campaign to take advantage of new species due to El Niño

The Ministry of Production launched the "Sea of Opportunities 2026-2027" campaign to inform about hydrobiological species with greater availability on the Peruvian coast due to oceanographic changes caused by El Niño. Between August 14 and 31, approximately 1,826.9 tons of opportunity resources were landed nationwide, mainly bottle (712.9 tons), blue shark (425.8), and threadfin shad (391.8). The initiative seeks to diversify the product offering and reduce pressure on species with decreased availability.
