The supply of frozen pomfret is abundant in Taiwan during the Lunar New Year Festival

As the Chinese New Year approaches, the market is concerned about the price of white pomfret. This is because the price of white pomfret is easily affected by factors such as the uncertainty of marine fishing.

The demand for fish has increased. The association explained that the import volume of white pomfret this year has increased by 1,255 MT compared with last year. In addition to the supply of frozen pomfret, the SOA council of agriculture requested the production and marketing fishermen groups to release golden pomfret, red tilapia, grouper, and other fish that symbolize auspiciousness. In addition, 5 days before the New Year Festival, the supply of 13 wholesale fish markets has been increased from 350 MT on weekdays to 450 MT, so that the supply of aquatic products during the New Year Festival is abundant to meet the needs of consumers.
