Ministerial Resolution No. 235-2025-PRODUCE, issued by Peru Ministry of Production on July 8, 2025, establishes a Maximum Total Catch Limit for Direct Human Consumption (LMTC-CHD) of 150,000 metric tons of anchovy for 2025. The measure applies to artisanal and small-scale fishing activities along the Peruvian coast, with catches exclusively intended for direct human consumption. The quota is supported by scientific information from the Peruvian Marine Research Institute (IMARPE) and seeks to balance the supply of anchovy for direct human consumption with the sustainability of the resource. The Ministry of Production is responsible for monitoring and enforcing compliance.
