Peru's Ministry of Production (Produce) has approved the addition of 4,771 new beneficiaries to the Fisherman's Bonus, a government subsidy of 700 soles. The move is designed to mitigate the impact of the El Niño Phenomenon and anomalous waves on artisanal fishing activity. The subsidy will benefit both embarked and non-embarked artisanal fishermen across the country, with the General Directorate of Artisanal Fishing of Produce coordinating with the Banco de la Nación for payment.
