The country’s fish unloading volume slightly fell in October, according to the Philippine Fisheries Development Authority (PFDA). In its latest briefer, the PFDA said the fish unloading volume in October declined by 3.18 percent to 45,738.05 metric tons (MT) from the 47,240.81 MT recorded last year. “The slight decline in the volume of fish unloading […] can be attributed to a combination of seasonal variations in fish catch, market demand fluctuations, and operational factors across PFDA regional fish ports,” the PFDA told the BusinessMirror on Thursday.
