Chilean aquaculture and fishing sector developments

Overview

The Chilean aquaculture and fishing sectors are undergoing various administrative and developmental shifts. The Salmon Council has proposed a growth agenda to the Chamber of Deputies to restore efficiency following a Constitutional Court ruling on aquaculture concessions. This proposal aims to potentially increase annual exports by up to US$520 million and create significant new employment in southern regions.

Parallel efforts are being made to support artisanal fishing through administrative and scientific initiatives. In the Chiloé archipelago, the ‘Caleta Más Cerca’ program has been implemented to provide on-site regulatory and technical assistance to fishers in isolated coves. Additionally, in the Ñuble Region, research proposals have been presented regarding marine repopulation and restorative aquaculture, focusing on species like sea urchins to diversify fishing activities and restore ecosystems.
