Chilean salmon prices to the Brazilian market have dropped again in week 16, reversing a recent strengthening trend. Prior to week 15, prices had been rising due to seasonal demand ahead of Easter and reduced supply from farms, particularly for larger fish sizes. The price decline indicates shifting market dynamics as the Easter holiday period concludes and supply conditions potentially normalize. Brazil represents a significant export market for Chilean salmon producers, making price fluctuations in this trade route closely watched by industry stakeholders. The volatility highlights the sensitivity of salmon markets to seasonal demand patterns and production cycles in Chile’s aquaculture sector.
