Ocean 14 Capital analysis flagged El Niño-linked supply shocks as a key risk for aquafeed inputs, lifting fishmeal and fish oil costs.
Peruvian anchoveta quotas for the first 2026 and second 2025 seasons total 3.5 million tonnes, down 30% year-on-year.
Super prime fishmeal FOB Peru hit USD 2,500 per tonne in May 2026, up from about USD 1,400 a year earlier.
Feed-grade fish oil climbed to USD 4,100 per tonne FOB Peru, up 64% year-on-year, before Peru closed the first 2026 season on Aug. 19.
The closure left over 1.4 million metric tons uncaught, tightening marine-ingredient availability as aquaculture demand continues to expand.
