Abundance and Lower Prices Forecasted for 2023's Coho Salmon Season in Chile

The farmed coho salmon season has recently begun in Chile, with the leading salmon farmers already harvesting new stocks, resulting in an increased supply in the market. Other farmers are scheduled to commence operations in mid-August, increasing overall market volumes. This season is forecasted to experience lower prices due to the abundance of available salmon and the main producer's assertive entry into the European market. The price range for farmed coho salmon during this season is expected to vary from USD 6.50/kg to USD 7.30/kg, based on quality categorizations such as Premium, Grade, and Industrial.
