Fisheries Dept: Prices Rise Amid Demand
The article discussed the rise in fish prices in Egypt due to increased demand during the summer season, especially for popular types such as mullet, tilapia, and shrimp. Dr. Hani Al-Menshawi explained that the price increase is linked to the supply and demand situation, with traders raising prices as more people gather in coastal areas like Alexandria and Port Said. He also pointed out that the annual fish consumption per Egyptian is around 21 kilograms, compared to the normal rate of 25 kilograms, and that Egypt's current production is approximately 2.4 million tons per year. Efforts are underway to boost production by establishing intensive fish farms to meet future demand. He noted that fish from the Mediterranean Sea and the Red Sea are among the preferred types, with Red Sea fish characterized by their firm flesh due to the higher salinity levels in the waters.
