Latest trends. Issue 2/2018 February 2018 GROUNDFISH

Transcription

1 Latest trends During January, all fish trade was directed towards China to meet strong demand in the lead up to the Chinese New Year. This caused prices to increase to levels that European traders were unwilling to pay. In mid-february, however, the focus is slowly shifting back towards to the core European markets for the Lent season, which started on 14 February. This is still one of the most important periods of fish consumption in Catholic countries and demand should pick up as a result, especially for traditional fish species such as cod and herring. GROUNDFISH In the market for wet-salted cod fillets from frozen raw material (Gadus macrocephalus), there is still pressure on the raw material side. Prices are increasing, as substitute products are not easy to find. For wet-salted cod fillets (Gadus morhua) from fresh raw material of Faroese and Icelandic origin, there is also very little supply available. In Iceland, reduced stocks are selling at high prices. Meanwhile, in Poland, demand for cod is very limited at present, translating into lower price levels. Demand is expected to increase over the coming months.

2 TUNA - BILLFISHES Catch rates in the Western and Central Pacific have improved and are now moderate-togood, while raw material inventories at Thai canneries remain at a healthy level. Carrier landings in Thailand have been high and, as a result, skipjack prices continue to fall. Fishing in the Indian Ocean is also moderateto-good and raw material inventories at local canneries remain healthy. With the improved catches, carrier transshipment activities are increasing and cargoes are being diverted to both Ecuador and Thailand. Skipjack and yellowfin prices are still dropping. TUNA - Pacific Ocean USD/kg Skipjack Bangkok CFR Skipjack Ecuador, ex-vessel The second 2-month IATTC veda fishing closures period in the Eastern Pacific ended on 19 January, 2018 but fishing remains poor. Raw material inventories at local canneries are low even though raw material supplies continue to be supplemented by carriers arriving from the Indian Ocean and the Western and Central Pacific. Both skipjack and yellowfin prices are holding firm and are substantially higher than the prevailing world prices for both species. The annual 2-month FAD (fish aggregating devices) closure in the Atlantic Ocean is currently in effect and ending on 28 February, Catches have been moderate for skipjack but poor for yellowfin. Raw material inventories at local canneries remain at moderate levels. Skipjack prices continue to decline while yellowfin prices have increased somewhat. European prices for both skipjack and yellowfin have been falling, although the market price for cooked, double cleaned yellowfin loins has been rising due to the exhaustion of the tonne duty-free quota since the first week of January.

3 SMALL PELAGICS Demand for herring and sprat is strong in Poland, which is pushing up prices despite good catches. CEPHALOPODS Average but steady demand for cuttlefish is reported from Europe, with prices slowly rising, while reports from Asian markets point to low demand and low prices for this species. Squid prices have fallen back from the sky-high levels reached in late Market development now once again depends on the start of the squid season in the South Western Atlantic, which will start in early March. The last few seasons have been disappointing, leading to a general supply crisis in the global market. A normal season would facilitate a return to a more stable balance between supply and demand for squid worldwide. SQUID - in Italy, origin: South Africa EUR/kg Squid - Whole, FAS, size M 7.25 CRUSTACEANS In Argentina, the fresh shrimp fishery at present resembles that of early 2017, although with a lower proportion of large-sized shrimp (10-20 count). The majority of these catches are being directed to the shrimp tail market for reprocessing in other countries. In Europe, inventories of these large shrimp are currently low and prices have started to move up for this size. For the smaller sizes, substantial arrivals of frozen-on-board shrimp have led to lower prices. The price differential between large and small sizes, which was almost zero last year, has risen to EUR 0.80 per kg. ARGENTINA RED SHRIMP - origin: Argentina EUR/kg > pc/kg > > >

4 OTHER CRUSTACEANS Crab and lobster landing are traditionally much lower at this time of year. However, demand is currently very weak and prices have started to drop for both European lobster and for crab, a typical seasonal trend. EUROPEAN LOBSTER - in Europe, origin: EUR/kg CRAB - in France, origin: Europe EUR/kg / gr/pc kg/pc BIVALVES There are now less French bouchot mussels on the market following the official ending of the Baie du Mont Saint Michel bouchot season on 19 January. The season opened on 24 July, Irish and Spanish rope as well as Dutch bottom mussels are more widely available as a result. MUSSEL BOUCHOT - in France According to the oyster mortality monitoring bulletin from the French scientific institution IFREMER dated 18 December, 2017, the Monthly average consumer prices in metropolitan average cumulative mortality rate is 70% at the national level for seed oysters with high regional variation. Juvenile and adult oysters are reported as having much lower mortality rates (8% and 7.2% respectively). Overall, according to the IFREMER monitoring programme, seed mortalities are a little above 2016 levels whereas juvenile and adult mortality rates are well below last year s levels. Summer oyster growth is reported to have been disappointing, leading to a shortage of largesized oysters. There was a substantial 31% increase in the volume of oysters exported from France in 2017, due primarily to a doubling of exports to China and Hong Kong. EUR/kg

5 SALMON A year after supply shortages sent farmed Atlantic salmon prices to record highs in Europe, the salmon market situation in early 2018 is significantly more stable. According to the Fish Pool Index, aggregate prices for Norwegian fresh whole farmed Atlantics as of week 6, 2018 were around 27% below the equivalent period in 2016 at NOK per kg. This level is comparable with those seen in 2016, reflecting better supply availability for all sizes after a biomass growth spurt over the course of 2017 and high harvest volumes towards the end of the year. This supply increase is also translating into increased export volumes. The latest figures from the Norwegian Seafood Council (NSC) for the month of January show a 23 percent increase in Norway s salmon exports in volume terms compared with January 2016, with export value approximately flat as a result of the lower price levels. Improving economic conditions across a range of global markets have kept underlying demand firm, in particular in the core EU market, which increased its share of Norwegian export volume in January compared with a year earlier. Scottish salmon producers, meanwhile, are beginning 2018 on the back of achieving the highest ever export value in 2017, a total of GBP 600 million. Although farms in Scotland have been facing sea lice issues, the industry has benefitted considerably from high prices and a weak British pound. Biomasses at Norwegian farms were up 7% at the end of December, and the expectation is for continued supply growth this year. Fish Pool forward prices for the first 3 quarters of the year are holding steady at NOK 54.61, and per kg respectively, although the consensus price has been revised downwards for the last quarter of 2018 to NOK Continued price stability at moderate levels should bring some relief to processors and other intermediaries, while improved economic conditions are expected to keep consumer demand firm. Salmon - origin: Norway NOK/kg

6 TROUT Prices for farmed Norwegian trout in early 2018 dropped below those of last year, to about NOK 55 per kg for fresh whole, but supply remains tight. Biomasses at farms as of December 2017 were some 10% higher year-on-year, but 2016 levels are an extremely low base for comparison. The latest NSC report shows an increase of 28 percent in Norwegian export volumes for the month of January, although the corresponding increase in export value was lower, at 7 percent. Norway s export markets for farmed trout are predominantly non-european, led in January by the USA, China and Canada. TROUT - Ex-farm prices in Italy EUR/kg Trout: Salmo spp Rainbow Trout: Oncorhynchus mykiss FRESHWATER FISH Carp is in low demand, as is normally the case at this time of year. Supplies are also low but in most cases sufficient; producers and traders take advantage of this quiet period to conduct maintenance work in the carp ponds. Prices are reported to be stable. Demand for other freshwater species is also weak with limited arrivals, particularly in the case of tilapia from China, for which winter is the production offseason. CARP - in Europe, origin: Hungary HUF/kg Carp - whole - live Carp - Fillets, fresh on ice Carp - Slices, fresh on ice SEABASS - SEABREAM - MEAGRE Prices of bass and bream were stable in early February, except for restaurant sizes ( g and g) for which prices increased by 7% for bream and dropped by 2% for bass. In the medium term, rising production volumes in Greece and Turkey continue to threaten the stability of the bass and bream market. In the first half of 2017, it was the bream supply that was increasing relatively more quickly, but towards the end of the year, bass volumes have been catching up. The winter is typically a quiet period for both species, with prices expected to be lifted by strengthening demand as the summer approaches. Companies have made progress in marketing and demand should be supported by improved economic conditions in Europe and elsewhere, but surplus supply will exert considerable downward pressure on prices in the coming months. In other news, the outcome of the bidding process to acquire Greek aquaculture companies Nireus and Selonda should soon be known, with only three private equity investment firms left in the running. 6
