In Russia, the preconditions have developed for a reduction in prices for pink salmon and red caviar, said the head of the Federal Fisheries Agency Ilya Shestakov. According to him, the price among fishermen has decreased by about one and a half times.
“From the point of view of the volumes of catch and production within the framework of the salmon fishing season, of course, all the prerequisites are there for at least pink salmon to decrease in price. <...> We have a very good catch, production volume has also increased. Therefore, the price of pink salmon caviar should definitely decrease,” said Mr. Shestakov on the sidelines of the Verona Eurasian Economic Forum (quote from “RIA News”).
In January–September, production volume amounted to 21.1 thousand tons, which is 2.7 times more than in the same period in 2022, and 3% more than in the same period in 2021. Mr. Shestakov previously did not rule out that the production of red caviar in the Russian Federation will double in 2023.
