OA show ('918 '); fish meal has been used as the main raw material of feed protein because it contains a variety of vitamins, calcium, phosphorus and amino acids From 1992 to 1999, the average annual production of fish meal in the world was 6.36 million tons (the lowest was 6.22 million tons in 1995, and the highest was 7.19 million tons in 1999) Due to the expansion of feed demand, the growth momentum of fish meal demand is slightly greater than the production capacity, resulting in the price increase of 8% - 10% per year, from $450 per ton in 1992 to $890 in 1999 It is expected that in the next 10 years, the international market for fish meal will be more tight The first reason is that Peru, Chile and other countries in South America have implemented policies of marine fish resources protection and sustainable development, which limits the production of raw fish The second reason is that the impact of global climate anomalies on the natural climate of major fishing grounds in the world also leads to the decline of raw fish Therefore, the international price of fish meal will gradually rise because the demand is greater than the supply But by 2005 or so, with the normal situation in Chile and Peru, the price of fish meal will remain relatively stable, but there will be a small increase of 5% - 8% China feed industry information network 7yx (author:)
