Domestic Rebound Ignites Trade for Giant Squid (Dosidicus Gigas) Following Prolonged Slump

In a decisive turn for the seafood industry, Week 16 saw a significant rebound in the domestic deep-sea market. Prices for all sizes of Peruvian squid (also known as giant squid (dosidicus gigas)) rose across the board, with whole giant squid showing the most aggressive gains.

As reported by Food World (Beijing), the price adjustments were as follows:

  • Extra-small whole giant squid (dosidicus gigas) increased by approximately $111.45.

  • Small whole giant squid (dosidicus gigas) rose by $104.49.

  • Tail fins climbed by $55.73.

  • Carcasses saw an uptick of $73.14.

Supply Tightening Drives Correction

This price recovery for Peruvian squid is attributed to a temporary tightening of supply rather than a spike in consumer demand. A weekly report from the Zhejiang Agricultural Research Center indicates that recent adjustments to fishing schedules have slowed production release, relieving the pressure caused by a glut of arrivals at ports in previous weeks.

Despite the higher costs, the market demonstrated significant liquidity. Online transactions for Southeast Pacific giant squid (dosidicus gigas) reached 2,442 tons at the Zhejiang Agricultural Research Center, signaling that purchasing power remains steady.

Global Production vs. Domestic Pricing

The current price surge for Peruvian squid domestically stands in contrast to the situation at the source. In Peru, as of April 16, the cumulative unloading volume of giant squid hit 244,861.50 tons, fulfilling 80.17% of the January-to-June quota. While local catches in Peru have rebounded, leading to lower prices at their production ports, domestic prices have moved upward due to shifting trading patterns.

In the high seas of the Southeast Pacific, production remains moderate. Since December 2025, the cumulative average catch per vessel has reached 500 tons, with daily averages currently sitting between 3 and 5 tons.

Inventory Challenges at Zhoushan Port

Despite the optimistic price movement, inventory levels at ports remain high. In Week 16, the volume of domestically caught giant squid (dosidicus gigas) entering Zhoushan Port actually increased, suggesting that the market is not yet seeing a reluctance to sell.

Industry experts caution that this move is more of a "temporary correction" than a long-term market shift. The future of Peruvian squid pricing will depend heavily on whether downstream buyers move beyond immediate restocking needs and begin building up larger inventories.

"The trading side is more concerned with whether goods can be sold smoothly after the price recovery, rather than simply looking at the rise in quoted prices," the report concludes.

ペルーイカ価格が反発:供給の変化に伴い市場が回復

長期的な低迷を経て、国内の回復がアメリカオオアカイカ(Giant Squid (Dosidicus Gigas))の取引に火をつける

水産業界にとって決定的な転換点となった第16週、国内の遠洋市場は大幅な反発を見せました。すべてのサイズのペルーイカ(別名アメリカオオアカイカ(giant squid (dosidicus gigas)))の価格が全面的に上昇し、特に全形の**アメリカオオアカイカ(giant squid (dosidicus gigas))**が最も力強い伸びを示しました。

**フードワールド(北京)**の報道によると、価格調整は以下の通りです:

  • **極小サイズの全形アメリカオオアカイカ(giant squid (dosidicus gigas))**は約 $111.45 上昇。

  • **小サイズの全形アメリカオオアカイカ(giant squid (dosidicus gigas))**は $104.49 上昇。

  • 尾鰭$55.73 上昇。

  • 胴体$73.14 の上昇となりました。

供給引き締めが価格修正を牽引

今回のペルーイカの価格回復は、消費需要の急増ではなく、一時的な供給の引き締めによるものです。浙江農業研究センターの週報によると、最近の漁獲スケジュールの調整により短期的な生産放出が鈍化し、前期に港への入港が集中したことで生じた圧力が緩和されました。

コストは上昇したものの、市場は顕著な流動性を示しました。浙江農業研究センターにおける**南東太平洋産アメリカオオアカイカ(giant squid (dosidicus gigas))**のオンライン取引量は 2,442トン に達し、購買力が安定していることを示しています。

世界の生産量と国内価格の対比

現在の国内におけるペルーイカの価格急騰は、産地の状況とは対照的です。ペルーでは、4月16日時点で**アメリカオオアカイカ(giant squid (dosidicus gigas))**の累計水揚げ量が 244,861.50トン に達し、1月〜6月の割当量の 80.17% を達成しました。ペルー現地では漁獲量が回復し、産地港の価格は下落していますが、取引パターンの変化により国内価格は上昇に転じています。

南東太平洋の公海では、生産量は緩やかです。2025年12月以降、1隻あたりの累計平均漁獲量は 500トン に達しており、現在は日平均 3〜5トン で推移しています。

舟山港における在庫の課題

楽観的な価格動向の一方で、港の在庫水準は依然として高いままです。第16週舟山港に入港した国内漁獲の**アメリカオオアカイカ(giant squid (dosidicus gigas))**の量は実際には増加しており、市場に売り惜しみの動きはまだ見られません。

業界の専門家は、今回の動きは長期的な市場の変化ではなく、あくまで「一時的な修正」であると警告しています。ペルーイカ価格の今後は、川下の買い手が当面の補充ニーズを超えて、より大規模な在庫積み増しを開始するかどうかに大きく依存します。

「取引側は、単なる提示価格の上昇よりも、価格回復後に商品がスムーズに売れるかどうかに注目している」と報告書は締めくくっています。

秘鲁鱿鱼价格反弹:供应转变带动市场回暖

国内回升在长期低迷后点燃美洲大赤鱿(Giant Squid (Dosidicus Gigas))交易

在水产行业的一个决定性转折中,第16周见证了国内远洋市场的显著反弹。各规格秘鲁鱿鱼(也称为美洲大赤鱿(giant squid (dosidicus gigas)))价格全面上涨,其中整只**美洲大赤鱿(giant squid (dosidicus gigas))**的涨幅最为强劲。

据**《食品世界》(北京)**报道,价格调整如下:

  • **特小号整只美洲大赤鱿(giant squid (dosidicus gigas))**上涨了约 $111.45

  • **小号整只美洲大赤鱿(giant squid (dosidicus gigas))**上涨了 $104.49

  • 尾鳍上涨了 $55.73

  • 胴体上涨了 $73.14

供应紧缩驱动价格修复

此次秘鲁鱿鱼的价格回升归因于供应的暂时紧缩,而非消费需求的激增。来自浙江远洋渔业数据中心(原浙江农研中心)的周报显示,近期捕捞计划的调整放缓了短期产量的释放,缓解了前期因货物集中抵达港口带来的压力。

尽管成本上涨,市场仍表现出显著的流动性。在浙江远洋渔业数据中心,**东南太平洋美洲大赤鱿(giant squid (dosidicus gigas))**的线上交易量达到 2,442 吨,表明购买力保持稳定。

全球产量与国内定价的对比

目前国内秘鲁鱿鱼价格的飙升与产地的情况形成了对比。在秘鲁,截至 4月16日美洲大赤鱿(giant squid (dosidicus gigas))的累计卸货量达到 244,861.50 吨,完成了 1月至6月 配额的 80.17%。虽然秘鲁当地捕捞量有所回升,导致其产地港口价格下降,但由于交易模式的变化,国内价格却出现上行。

东南太平洋公海,产量保持中等水平。自 2025年12月 以来,单船累计平均捕获量已达到 500 吨,目前日均捕获量保持在 3 至 5 吨 之间。

舟山港的库存挑战

尽管价格走势乐观,但港口库存水平依然处于高位。在第16周,进入舟山港的国产**美洲大赤鱿(giant squid (dosidicus gigas))**数量实际上有所增加,这表明市场尚未出现惜售心理。

行业专家警告称,这一举动更多是“暂时性的修正”,而非长期的市场转变。秘鲁鱿鱼定价的未来将很大程度上取决于下游买家是否能超越即时补货需求,开始建立更大规模的库存。

“交易端更关注价格回升后货物能否顺利售出,而不仅仅是看报价的上涨,”报告总结道。
