Fishing in Peru has existed for thousands of years, first beginning with small fishing communities who lived off the sea.[7] By the 1400s, these communities became organized under the Inca Empire, and they developed, or had already developed, economic specialization.[8]

Fishing and fisheries did not develop economically until post-World War II.[9] Economic development came as a result of the developing fishmeal industry, which largely depended on fishing Peruvian anchovetas. The industry led to the economy booming and growing and becoming the largest single-species fishery in the world; however, the industry collapsed in the 1970s as a result of the 1972 Peruvian anchoveta crisis.[10]

Peru continues fishing as a major sector. In 2008, the sector fished over 7.3 million tonnes of aquatic resources, from both the Pacific Ocean and from inland waters.[11] Most recently in 2021, the sector fished over 6.7 million tonnes of aquatic resources.[12] It is also the largest fishmeal producer, surpassing the EU's production by over 50,000 tonnes in 2018.[13] Aquaculture is another industry that has seen major development and growth in recent years, expanding from just about 6,500 tonnes in 2000 to over 150,000 tonnes in 2021.[14] Overall, the fishing industry in Peru is a major source of employment, providing over 121,000 with jobs in 1999, over 145,000 in 2007, somewhere between 160,000 and 232,000 jobs in 2013, and up to 700,000 jobs in 2021, as stated by The Economist.[15]

Several governmental and non-profit organizations also exist that partake a great role in the Peruvian fishing industry, whether through creating and enforcing regulations, funding projects and programs, collecting data, and more.

Fishing Areas edit

Fishing largely takes place in the Pacific Ocean and along Peru's coastline, but there are some inland areas where fishing also takes place.

EEZ/Mar de Grau and marine protected areas (MPAs) edit

 
The Mar de Grau

The EEZ of Peru extends 200 nautical miles off the coast. The corresponding territorial claims that Peru has made also matches the area that the EEZ covers and is named the Mar de Grau, after Miguel Grau Seminario, a military officer who fought against Chile in the War of the Pacific. These territorial claims that Peru has made over the Pacific waters also extend about 200 nautical miles off the Peruvian coast.[16] In total, the area covered is about 857,000 km2 (~331,000 square miles), with about 4,030 km2 (~1,560 square miles) of that area designated for Peru's eight marine protected areas and for the four marine managed areas.[17]

Since 2017, non-profit organizations such as Oceana and the Wyss Foundation had been endorsing the creation of a marine protected area (MPA) in the Nazca Ridge, which would be the largest yet and bring the total percentage of Peru's EEZ under protection from 0.48% to about 6.5%, with the total proposed area being approximately 50,000 km2, or about 19,300 square miles.[18][19] Oceana itself granted about $845,000 in a two-year program to encourage the creation of the Nazca Ridge MPA, along with other goals like helping complete Peru's marine spatial planning.[20] In October of 2019, Peru's minister of the environment Fabiola Muñoz pledged to create the area by 2021.[21] At the United Nations Summit on Biodiversity, held on September 30, 2020,[22] Peru's president Martin Vizcarra announced that he would be creating the area by the end of 2020, also intending to protect 30% of Peru's waters by 2030.[19]

 
Map of the Nazca Ridge National Reserve (in yellow)

On June 5, 2021, a decree was made by the Peruvian government that officially established the Nazca Ridge National Reserve MPA, totaling an area of about 62,392 km2 (24,089 square miles).[23][24][25] In Spanish called the Reserva Nacional Dorsal de Nasca,[26] it covers approximately 7.3% of Peru's EEZ.[27] With its establishment, the percentage of Peru's EEZ that was under protection rose to about 7.8%, nearly 8%.[28] However, the management of the area is under harsh critique and has created controversy, as it still permits fishing in a direct-use zone to a depth as far as 1,000 meters, with only strict protection from 1,000 to 4,000 meters. Oceana and some 20 other organizations joined together and called the actions of fishing in protected areas as illegal, however, Peru's ministry responded claiming that the amount of fishing would be insignificant.[23]

Chile and Peru are believed to be the creators of the concept of EEZs, as in 1947, both governments agreed upon and established maritime zones 200 nautical miles off of each other's coasts.[29] Although the Peruvian government makes these territorial claims, the claims are not officially recognized by the United States.[30]

Inland areas edit

Inland areas also experience fishing, although on a smaller scale. Inland fishing occurs mainly in the Amazon Rainforest region of Peru, in the rivers and swamps. Fishing also occurs in the Peruvian Sierra and in Lake Titicaca, the largest lake in South America.[11] In 2007, the inland fisheries caught about 43,000 metric tons of fish. Much of the inland fishing, however, is largely artisanal and for subsistence, not necessarily commercial or for productive purposes.[31]

Fishing edit

Artisanal fishing edit

Artisanal fishing, as defined by the FAO, is composed of individuals that do not have a fishing vessel or have one that has a capacity of up to 32.6 cubic meters and has a length of up to 15 meters. Work also should mostly be done manually, or by hand, to be categorized as artisanal fishing. Small-scale fisheries are defined similarly, although they employ modern fishing methods and gear. In 2008, artisanal fishers were reported to have caught about 721,000 tonnes, mostly for direct human consumption, or DHC.[11] Artisanal fishers are said to provide 80% of the fish that are consumed in Peru, as of 2023.[32] Artisanal fishing is important in Peru due to the fact that it acts as a good source of employment and food for the lower classes, mitigating poverty, unemployment, and starvation.[33][34]

Over 67,000 fishers are employed in the artisanal fishing sector, as of 2020.[33] This is compared to about 28,000 fishers in 1995 and about 37,700 fishers in 2005. The northern region of Peru is especially a source of artisanal fishers, with over 16,000, as of 2019.[35] As of 2005, over half of the fishers have secondary education and about 7.1% have higher education. Every fisher is part of some trade association, trade union, marine association, collective, or other type of organization. Artisanal fishers have exclusive commercial rights to conduct fishing operations within 5 miles of the Peruvian coast, although fishing may extend beyond 10 nautical miles.[36] About 200 fishing settlements are involved along the coast, harvesting over 220 different species of marine life. The marine artisanal fishery contributed an average 19% of the total annual catch between 2004 and 2017.[34] Artisanal fishers utilize several different fishing gears and methods, including driftnet, hook-and-line, compressor diving, purse seine, surface longline, and trawl nets. They also use their hands to gather sea resources, such as algae and mollusks, manually.[11]

Inland artisanal fishers control the most important inland fishery in the Peruvian Amazon, and mainly fish for subsistence. In 2005, the region caught over 36,600 tonnes and 25,300 tonnes in 2013.[31] Local artisanal inland fishing also occurs in rivers such as the Jequetepeque River.[37]

 
Dolphinfish, or mahi-mahi (Coryphaena hippurus)

One major target species of artisanal fishers is the jumbo flying squid. Artisanal fishers make up most of the jumbo flying squid fishery.[38] The artisanal fleet contributes to 45% of the world's catch of jumbo flying squid, having caught over 500,000 tonnes in 2019. This accounts annually for about 9% to 15% of the Peruvian fisheries sector GDP, producing over US$850 million in exports in 2019, with 30% exported to the US and EU.[39] Over US$180 million in revenue was produced by the fishery in 2020. Between 2010 and 2019, 38% of the jumbo flying squid catch was used for DHC and this represented 59% of the value of seafood exports used for DHC. Over 20,000 fishers are believed to be directly employed in the jumbo flying squid fishery, as of 2018.[40] This figured has grown to about 31,200 people employed to directly catch the squid, and 12,000 employed to process frozen products from the squid, as of 2020.[41]

Mahi-mahi, also known as the dolphinfish, is another major target species of artisanal fishers. It is the second-largest artisanal fishery, just behind the jumbo flying squid fishery, providing jobs for over 10,000 fishers. 50% of the world's catch of dolphinfish is from Peru, generating between US$90 million and US$100 million in exports.[42] Altogether, the jumbo flying squid and mahi-mahi fisheries have more than 3,300 vessels.[38]

Fished aquatic life edit

There are thousands of species of freshwater and saltwater fish in Peru, with about 1,011 freshwater species and 1,070 saltwater species recorded.[43] About 220 species of overall saltwater life are caught by artisanal fishers.[11] Over 50 species of fish are also landed for commercial purposes.[44]

Marine life edit

 
Engraulis ringens, also known as the Peruvian anchoveta

A variety of marine life are fished in Peru. Approximately 220 species of marine life are fished, at least by artisanal fishers, with 80% being finfish, 17% being invertebrates, and 2% being algae, with the remaining 1% being labeled as other resources.[11] The main fish caught is the Peruvian anchoveta (Engraulis ringens), which, in 2022, accounted for about 86.7% of all marine landings.[45] The majority of Peruvian anchoveta landings are used for industrial purposes to create fishmeal and fish oil.

Besides the Peruvian anchoveta, a large variety of other teleosts are also caught, including the following: Pacific sardine (Sardinops sagax), Chilean jack mackerel (Trachurus murphyi), Pacific chub mackerel (Scomber japonicus), Peruvian hake (Merluccius gayi peruanus), Eastern Pacific bonito (Sarda chiliensis), Longnose anchovy (Anchoa nasus), common dolphinfish (Coryphaena hippurus), flathead grey mullet (Mugil cephalus), Pacific menhaden (Ethmidium maculatum), lumptail searobin (Prionotus stephanophrys) along with other flying fish, palm ruff (Seriolella violacea), the Chilean silverside (Odontesthes regia), the Peruvian rock seabass (Paralabrax humeralis), cabinza grunt (Isacia conceptionis), punctuated snake-eel (Ophichthus remiger), Swordfish (Xiphias gladius), the Peruvian moonfish (Selene peruviana), the Pacific sierra (Scomberomorus sierra), flatfishes (Pleuronectiformes), Paloma pompano (Trachinotus paitensis), the Peruvian grunt (Anisotremus scapularis), the Peruvian morwong (Cheilodactylus variegatus), the black snook (Centropomus nigrescens), the Californian needlefish (Strongylura exilis), chalapo clinid (Labrisomus philippii), fortune jack (Seriola peruana), and the grape-eye seabass (Hemilutjanus macrophthalmos).[17]

Catch for the Pacific sardine was first recorded in 1973, with industrial fishing of the species commencing in 1978. The catch peaked at over 3,500,000 tonnes in 1988, however, catch slowly decreased until nearly no sardines were caught after 2001; only 800 tons were caught in 2014.[46][47] The Chilean jack mackerel is a significantly caught fish in the Peruvian fishery, first being recorded in 1951 at 100 tonnes and peaking in 2001 at over 720,000 tonnes; the catch in 2011 was over 250,000 tonnes.[48] The Pacific chub mackerel is mainly caught by industrial ships (about 84%) and the rest is caught by small, artisanal ships. About 75,000 tons were caught in 2014.[47] The Peruvian hake is a very important species in the bottom trawl fishery, for both industrial and artisanal fishers.[49] Commerical fishing of the species began in 1965 and has since remained a significant species, with over 78,000 tonnes fished in 2017, with exports generating US$29.3 million, mainly to Germany, United States, and Eastern Europe. The total domestic value of frozen and fresh products in 2016 was estimated at US$55.9 million.[50] 82,000 tonnes of Eastern Pacific bonito were caught in 2023 by artisanal fishers.[51] Recorded catch for longnose anchovy is highly erratic, beginning in 1993 at 63,420 tonnes and peaking in 1998 at over 706,000 tonnes; 3,520 tonnes were caught in 2011.[52] Catch for dolphinfish was first recorded in 1988 at 618 tonnes, and the highest recorded catch was in 2009 at over 57,000 tonnes; 2014 yielded about 55,000 tonnes.[53][47] Capture of flathead grey mullet was over 14,000 tons in 2014.[47] Capture of Pacific menhaden has been recorded since at least 1950, peaking at 44,700 tonnes in 1973; 2011 recorded over 1,700 tonnes captured.[54] Catch for lumptail searobin peaked in 2010 at over 1,400 tons, however, the species immediately crashed, and 0 tons have been captured since, as of 2014.[55] Chilean silverside catch was recorded to be about 10,000 tons in 2014.[47] Capture of Peruvian rock seabass in 2014 was over 1,500 tons and had peaked in 2009 at 2,500 tons.[47] Cabinza grunt catch has been recorded since at least 1950, peaking in 2002 at 5,606 tonnes; 2011 yielded over 3,600 tonnes.[56] 3,269 tonnes of punctuated snake-eel were captured in 2023 in northern Peru.[57] Catch for swordfish has been relatively small, being caught since at least 1950 and having over 1,300 tonnes caught in Peru in 2011.[58] The Peruvian moonfish is of little commercial value and only important to artisanal fisheries, where they market the fish in the Tumbes region; therefore, catch for the species is not well recorded.[59] Catch for the Pacific sierra has been recorded since at least 1950, peaking in 1999 at over 2,700 tonnes, with the most recent catch in 2011 at 325 tonnes.[60] Catch for the Peruvian morwong first began being recorded in 1966 and has always been small, almost always below 500 tonnes, except for in 2007 where it reached over 800 tonnes.[61]

Some teleost categories include multiple species, such as the following: Cusk-eels with the Pacific bearded brotula (Brotula clarkae) and the black cusk-eel (Genypterus maculatus), tilefish with the bighead tilefish (Caulolatilus affinis) and the Ocean whitefish (Caulolatilus princeps), drums and croakers with the corvina drum (Cilus gilberti), loran drum (Sciaena deliciosa), minor stardrum (Stellifer minor), Pacific drum (Larimus pacificus), Peruvian banded croaker (Paralonchurus peruanus), and the Peruvian weakfish (Cynoscion analis), tunas with the yellowfin tuna (Thunnus albacares) and the skipjack tuna (Katsuwonus pelamis), basses, groupers, and hinds of the Serranidae family, and several other uncategorized marine fishes.[17]

Catch for the corvina drum has been recorded since at least 1950, with catch peaking in 1960 at 17,900 tonnes; over 9,000 tonnes were caught in 2011.[62] Catch for the Peruvian banded croaker has also been recorded since at least 1950 and peaked at over 24,500 tonnes in 1985; 1,200 tonnes were caught in 2011.[63] Catch for the Peruvian weakfish has been recorded since 1961 and peaked in 1998 at 10,795 tonnes, with the most recent catch in 2011 at over 4,300 tonnes.[64] Catch for the yellowfin tuna has been recorded since at least 1950 and also peaked in 1998 at over 12,700 tonnes, with the most recent catch in 2011 at over 7,700 tonnes.[65] Catch for the skipjack tuna has been recorded since at least 1950 and peaked at 26,700 tonnes in 1959, with the most recent catch in 2011 at over 4,100 tonnes.[66]

 
Shark landings in Peru: Green solid line-open circle = Blue Shark, Orange dashed line-closed circle = Mako Shark, Light purple dashed line-open circle = Angel Shark, Fucsia solid line-closed square = Smooth-Hound, Light green solid line-closed triangle = Common Thresher Shark, Yellow solid line-open square = Smooth Hammerhead Shark

Some sharks are also commonly caught, including the blue shark, known scientifically as Prionace glauca, the shortfin mako, known scientifically as Isurus oxyrinchus, the smooth hammerhead, known scientifically as Sphyrna zygaena, the common thresher, known scientifically as Alopias vulpinus, the humpback smooth-hound, known scientifically as Mustelus whitneyi, the school shark, known scientifically as Galeorhinus galeus, the Pacific angelshark, known scientifically as Squatina californica, and other sharks of the Elasmobranchii subclass.[17] From 1950 to 2010, about 372,000 tons of sharks were caught in Peru, with all listed except the school shark representing 94% of landings; blue shark represented 42%, shortfin mako represented 20%, smooth hammerhead represented 15%, humpback smooth-hound represented 7%, common thresher represented 6%, and the Pacific angelshark represented 4%. Fishing for these sharks increased between 1996 and 2010, with these sharks then representing 98% of all shark landings. The year with the most landings was 1973 with 19,718 tons of sharks caught. The sharks are particularly fished for their fins and Peru, along with Costa Rica and Ecuador, are important suppliers of shark fins to the Asian market.[67]

Batoids commonly caught are the giant manta, scientifically known as Mobula birostris, along with other species from the Myliobatiformes order and some from the Rajiformes order, and the Pacific guitarfish, scientifically known as Pseudobatos planiceps.[17] Overall, 202,422 tonnes of batoids were caught in Peru between 1950 and 2015, peaking in 1988 at 11,284 tonnes.[68] Although giant mantas used to be greatly caught by artisanal fishers in Peru, due to the decline of the species, capture, selling, and consumption of the species has been illegalized since 2013. Now, the species mainly used for ecotourism. Estimations detail that a giant manta now, through ecotourism, can generate over US$1,000,000 over its lifetime, as opposed to, at most, US$500 at death for its meat.[69]

 
Chupe de camarones served in Peru

Crustaceans include those like the Panulirus gracilis, or the green spiny lobster, commonly fished by artisanal fishers using gillnets or their hands in the Tumbes region, in the north of Peru.[70] Catches for the species began first being recorded by FAO in 1974. The largest catch recorded by FAO was in 1998 when 669 tonnes were caught.[71] Most of the catch goes to restaurants, local markets, hotels, and consumers for consumption.[17][72] Marine crabs are also caught, and typically are used for direct human consumption. Penaeid shrimps are also caught, along with Pleuroncodes monodon, or the red squat lobster, which became abundant in the mid-1990s, and are typically caught unintentionally as bycatch by industrial ships and used as bait by smaller, artisanal ships.[17]

Bivalves that are fished commonly include the Chilean ribbed mussel, clams such as Gari solida and Semele corrugata, macha clam, Peruvian calico scallop, and some other bivalves. These other bivalves include razor clams, Venus clams, oysters, bean clams, mussels, Mexican cockles, and ark clams. All bivalves are typically caught by artisanal divers.[17] The Chilean ribbed mussel, known scientifically as Aulacomya atra, is the most significant, making up nearly half of all shellfish landings.[73] Catch for Aulacomya atra first began being recorded in 1953, and the year where the most amount were caught was 1976 at 16,385 tonnes; 2011 yielded over 9,100 tonnes.[74] Catch for the Peruvian calico scallop, or Argopecten purpuratus, first began being recorded in 1952, and in 2007 had over 93,000 tonnes of the scallop caught.[75]

Cephalopods include the Changos octopus, the jumbo flying squid, and the Patagonian squid. Catch for the Changos octopus, scientifically known as Octopus mimus, has constantly fluctuated, entering a large growth period from 2015 to 2017, reaching its height in 2017 when about 6,300 tonnes were caught. However, after 2017, catch significantly crashed to only an average of about 1,100 tonnes.[76] The jumbo flying squid is the second-largest fishery in all of Peru and is also the largest artisanal fishery, involving over 11,000 fishers and over 3,000 fishing ships. It is also economically important, with 30% of the catch being exported to the US and Europe, generating over US$860 million per year.[77][78] The jumbo flying squid, known scientifically as Dosidicus gigas, was first recorded being caught in 1970. The 2000s saw a significant increase in the amount of jumbo flying squid caught, with the largest catch recorded in 2014 at over 556,000 tonnes; 2021 saw over 490,000 tonnes caught.[79][80][81] Catch for the Patagonian squid, known scientifically as Doryteuthis gahi and formerly as Loligo gahi, was first recorded in 1963, and the highest catch was recorded in 2003 at over 27,000 tonnes; 2011 yielded only about 2,200 tonnes.[82] Patagonian squid are mainly caught using small-scale fishing gear and are primarily used for direct human consumption.[17]

Gastropods commonly caught are the chocolate rock shell, swollen frog shell, concave ear moon snail, Chilean abalone, and limpets of the Fissurella genus.[17] Between 1970 and 1992, the catch for the chocolate rock shell, known scientifically as Thaisella chocolata, was recorded as 'caracol' under the mollusk category by IMARPE; The highest recorded catch was in 1989 with over 7,300 tonnes caught.[83][84] It is typically caught by artisanal divers and eaten fresh by locals or exported frozen.[85] The Chilean abalone, known scientifically as Concolepas concholepas, has had its catch recorded since 1990, peaking in that same year at over 7,700 tonnes; only about 1,200 tonnes were captured in 2011.[86]

The main echinoderm caught is the Chilean sea urchin, also known as Loxechinus albus; however, sea cucumbers, known scientifically as Holothuroidea, are also caught.[17] Catch for the Chilean sea urchin first began in 1969, and the highest catch was recorded in 2019 at 4,350 tonnes.[87] Sea cucumber species typically commercially caught are Holothuria theelii, Isostichopus fuscus, Athyonidium chilensis, and Pattalus mollis. The sea cucumber fishery started in the late 1980s, focusing on Holothuria theelii, but when this species depleted, the fishery shifted focus to Pattalus mollis, still the focus in present day, and onto other species. Athyonidium chilensis originally was only eaten in the Department of Lambayeque, but it, along with Pattalus mollis, are now available on local markets. Typically, sea cucumbers are caught as bycatch, and used for subsistence and as an 'artisanal venture'. Sea cucumbers are not officially managed by the Peruvian government. Much of the catch goes to Hong Kong, with 26.1% of all sea cucumbers imported being from Peru. A total of 79,349 kg of sea cucumbers have been imported by Hong Kong from Peru between 1996 and 2005.[88]

Freshwater life edit

Freshwater life is also fished in Peru, although at a much smaller scale. Species living in coastal rivers are almost never fished commercially and are mostly fished by artisanal fishers living near the river. Some examples of fish caught in coastal rivers include Brycon atrocaudatus and Chaetostoma microps, which are caught in the Tumbes River, and catfishes of the Astroblepus and Trichomycterus genus, typically caught in the Jequetepeque River.[37]

 
Prochilodus nigricans

In highland waterbodies, the main species fished is the rainbow trout. In higher forest streams, most fishing is done for local DHC. These rivers include the Perene River, Satipo River, Huallaga River, Aguaytia River, and the Alto Urubamba River. Small species, such as those of the Rhamdia genus, are mainly targeted, but larger fish such as Pseudoplatystoma fasciatum and Prochilodus nigricans are also fished. P. nigricans is said to be the most commercially important species, making up about 30% of the annual catch. Colossoma macropomum and P. brachypomus are also important when seasonally available.[37]

Commerical fishing for freshwater fish mainly occurs in the main rivers in large cities. Such areas include Puerto Maldonado, located along the Tambopata and Madre de Dios River, Pucallpa, along the Ucayali River, and Iquitos, which includes the Ucayali River and Marañón River. 50 different species of fish are caught in the Madre de Dios, although only 12 species make up 90% of the catch. These species include Pseudoplatystoma fasciatum and tigrinum, Brachyplatystoma rouseauxii and filamentosum, Phractocephalus hemioliopterus, Zungaro zungaro, Piaractus brachypomus, Prochilodus nigricans, Mylossoma duriventre, and Potamorhina altamazonica. In Pucallpa, from 1980 to 1991, about 3,800 tonnes were caught on average annually, and 8 species made up 85% of the landings. In Iquitos, 10 species accounted for about 90% of the catch.[37]

Overall, in the Amazonia area, some approximate 70 species are caught commercially for DHC. 420 other species are also used for ornamental purposes.[31] About 80,000 tonnes of fish are caught in the Peruvian Amazonia, as of 2008, with 75% caught by artisanal fishers and 25% caught by commercial fishers. Iquitos caught 30,000 tonnes, Pucallpa caught 12,000 tonnes, and Tambopata caught 290 tonnes.[37]

Lake Titicaca also has some commercial fishing, mainly on the rainbow trout, introduced in the 1930s, and the Argentinian silverside, introduced in the 1950s. The fish are sold in restaurants near Lake Titicaca.[89] Other fishes caught in Lake Titicaca are also sold to Cusco, Puno, and La Paz.[37]

Some other species that are also commonly fished for include Arapaima gigas, which is important commercially and for those living in the Amazon, as it provides a source of food and income. However, fishing for the species is permanently banned in certain areas and during reproductive periods in some other areas due to overfishing, which nearly wiped out the species. Aquaculture has also sought to continue harvesting the species sustainably.[90][91] Shrimp, such as Cryphiops caementarius, are also fished in the south and center rivers of Peru. The species is unique, as it's the only one that lives in rivers that supports not only the artisanal fishery, but also the commercial fishery, mainly in the Majes-Camana River.[11][92]

Aquaculture edit

Aquaculture is said to have begun in 1934 following the introduction of rainbow trout to sports fishing, which became the first freshwater fish to be cultivated in Peru.[93] Since then, several other species of aquatic life have been used in the aquaculture sector of the fishing industry, a rapidly developing economic activity within Peru, run by both commercial and artisanal operations, in ocean and inland areas.[31] In 2021, aquaculture production in Peru was about 150,000 tonnes.[14]

Maritime aquaculture edit

Maritime aquaculture consists of several species; however, the two animals mainly cultivated that account for most, almost 100% in 2013, of the harvest are scallops and penaeid shrimps/prawns.[93][31]

Inland aquaculture edit

Inland aquaculture consists of a greater variety of species compared to maritime aquaculture; however, the two fishes that are most commonly cultivated are trout and tilapia, who accounted for about 97% of the harvest in 2013.[31][93]

Economic contribution edit

GDP contribution edit

The fishing industry is a major industry within Peru. In 2007, the sector accounted for a record 1.7% of the country's total GDP, although had declined to about 0.9% of the GDP in 2013, still remaining however a major industry. Exports accounted for about US$2.8 billion in 2013.[31] Exports were estimated at about US$2.7 billion in 2017.[94] In 2020, the sector accounted for about 1.5% of Peru's GDP, and represented 7% of the total exports of Peru, at about US$3.3 billion.[95]

Employment edit

Originally in 1999, employment stood at about 121,629 workers, according to the Food and Agriculture Organization, and in 2007, the FAO estimated there to be about 145,232 workers, with about 58% working to capture and extract, about 19% working to process, about 6% working in aquaculture, and the remaining approximation of 16% working in related activities.[11] In 2013, employment is said to have been around 160,000 workers, with about 59% working to capture and extract, about 16% working to process, about 9% working in aquaculture, and the remaining 17% working in related activities. In total, this would account for about 1% of Peru's workforce;[31] however, some sources claim that the fishing sector generated as high as 231,000 to 232,000 jobs in 2013, with the retailer section accounting for about 45% of the jobs, the primary sector accounting for about 32%, and the remaining 20% accounted for by the processing sector. By far, restaurants accounted for the most employment. In the primary sector, mainly men worked; in the processing sector, both men and women shared half-and-half of the employment; in the retail sector, women shared a small majority. As a whole, men mostly dominate employment in the fishery industry.[96][97] In 2021, The Economist stated that the fishing industry in Peru supported as many as 700,000 jobs.[15]
