The Federal Fisheries Council has allocated a social reserve of 30,000 tons of the Engraulis anchoíta species, with 10,000 tons assigned for fishing projects of maximum social interest in Buenos Aires and Chubut, each, from the stock north and south of the 41º parallel of South Latitude. This resolution, the first of 2022, represents a significant growth for Chubut's fishing activity, with the support of Councilor Adrián Awstin, the Chamber of the Yellow Fleet of Chubut, and the provincial Secretary of Fisheries, Gabriel Aguilar. The move is seen as historic, offering an injection into the regional economy and positioning fishing as a key driver of development in the region.
