a
challenging
2015, Chilean salmon
farmers had begun to
focus on international
positioning, the implementation of antibiotic-free
treatments and generally looking
forward to a more constructive
year. No-one could have foreseen
the strike of a yet larger crisis, the
algal bloom reported on farms in
Region X from Feb. 25.
So far, it is impossible to estimate the reach of the disaster, but
it is already affecting the industry
on all levels -- production,
companies value, international
reputation and employment -reminding producers of scenes
from 2007 when the Chilean
aquaculture industry faced its
biggest crisis in history with the
outbreak of infectious salmon
anemia (ISA). The highly contagious disease caused massive
mortalities and losses right up
until 2011, with the countrys
salmon production plummeting
65 percent over three years and
sector employment crashing by
40 percent over the same period.
The algal bloom reported in
a number of Chilean salmon
farms in Los Lagos and Chiloe
has caused estimated losses of 20
million fish to date, according to
SalmonChile. Estimated losses
of 2016 to date are approximately
20 million fish, or the equivalent
of 85,000 metric tons of Atlantic
salmon had the fish grown to
normal harvesting weight, said
SalmonChile in a press release.
The majority of the dead fish
formed part of a 2016 harvest,
although the algal bloom is also
affecting 2017 harvests as well. In
addition, 2 million Coho salmon
have been killed, which if left for
fattening and harvested for sale,
would have reached 4,500 metric
tons.
According to the latest updates
by Chiles National Service
of Fisheries and Aquaculture
(Sernapesca),

affected 29 salmon farms
belonging to 12 companies,
named AquaChile, Blumar,
Camanchaca, Salmones Austral,
Marine Harvest, Australis Mar,
Salmones Humboldt, Marine
Farm, Cermaq, Ventisqueros,
Caleta Bay and Salmones Aysen.
The costs of the insured and
uninsured
The financial impact of the
crisis is becoming clear as major
companies on the Santiago Stock
Exchange report their losses, but
with some companies uninsured,
the pain will be felt more keenly
by some companies than others.
Salmon farming group Blumar
confirmed Thursday that its
Caicura center, located in the
second district, saw mortalities
reach 210,000 fish so far, out
of a total of 1,171,642 Atlantic
salmon.
The dead fish, weighing an
average of 1.5 kilograms each,
account for 18 percent of the total
value, estimated at $7.4 million
(6.8 million). The company has
nine centers in Region XI, as well,
which has not been affected by the
algal bloom. However, there is a
risk alert on those sites, too, and
we have contingency measures in
place, the company announced
on the stock exchange.

WILDFIRE: A dozen Chilean companies have reported the presence of algae on more than 30 sites.
Blumar has an insurance policy
on all its centers covering risks
of natural causes, such as an
algal bloom, with a deductible of
14 percent for each event, based
on the total accumulated cost
registered by the company at the
close of the latest monthly exercise prior to the event. Based
on figures from its January
report, Blumar estimates some
$1.04 million (952,848) will be

he farmed Mexican
shrimp sector hopes this
year will show improved
recovery from being
hit by Early Mortality
Syndrome (EMS) a few years ago.
Back in 2008 and 2009, farmed
shrimp production was 130,000
metric tons -- an important
contributor to global supply.
It climbed somewhat and
then dropped to 55,000-60,000
metric tons in 2013 at the height
of EMS, Bill Hoenig, VP sales
and operations at Delta Blue
Aquaculture, told IntraFish.
By 2015, shrimp production had
bounced back to about 100,000
metric tons.
The recovery has been robust
and some people say remarkable
but the jurys still out, Hoenig
said.
Its just a question of how
sustainable it is. There are so
many variables and the farming
method in Mexico is semiintensive. You have farms that
are that are 50 hectares to 1,000
hectares.
He added biosecurity is a challenge with an open pond system
at three to five hectares per pond.
One of the factors that left
shrimp farms vulnerable to
EMS a few years back was in the
genetics.
The genetic path we took to
Mexico over the last couple years
has been for animals that grow
fast and have good feed conversion, Hoenig said.
But as with all genetics, when
you select for something, you
deselect for something else so
we selected for growth and feed
conversion and deselected for
resistance to disease.
Part of the 2015 recovery was
the implementation of new
genetic lines from Ecuador,
where they have been breeding
for white spot resistance since
the mid-2000s.
We
started
using
the
Ecuadorians genetic line in 2014
but last year was when we started
using it extensively, which is why
the jurys still out and well see
how the performance is in 2016,
Hoenig said.
Once you have EMS, you have
it and you dont get rid of it.
You just learn how to manage
the disease better and reduce
mortality rate.
Farmers just started the 2016
season last month and this
month in the southern regions.
Northern regions start stocking
in March and April as the
weather warms. Harvesting
begins around late May and
early June in the south, followed
a month or two later in the north.
Everyone finishes harvesting by
late October or early November.
Some new farms in the Mexican
state of Colima have the potential
to produce year-round, Hoenig
