10 GROUNDFISH REPORT Mixed picture in groundfish markets: hake remains tight whereas good Alaska pollock supply prospects will ease prices The situation with groundfish species currently presents a mixed picture. Some markets are stable, among them, the EU Alaska pollock market. Others, such as the EU cod market, are showing an increase in prices. The surimi market is also showing signs of growing. Supplies of hake from Argentina remain tight. Alaska pollock is stable at present but should see growing quantities next year. SURIMI Surimi sales in France in the readymeal market have increased by 13% in the first 6 months of 2010, reaching EUR 251 million. This positive trend indicates that consumers have renewed their interest in this product. During the financial crisis when consumers were more cost-aware non-essential products, such as surimi, declined in popularity. Surimi, with a fish content of 38-40% is a particular favourite with families as it is an easy way of encouraging children to eat fish. As far as the European surimi market is concerned, the strong Euro is pushing prices of raw material downwards. ALASKA POLLOCK Prices in the European Alaska pollock market are stable, both for whole fish and fillets. The B-season fishing in the US went well and a quota increase is forecast for next year. American scientists are proposing to increase the quota of Alaska pollock but have not yet fixed any exact quantities. The forecast lies between tonnes and 1.1 million tonnes. Discussion on the proposed quota will take place during the upcoming Groundfish C&F prices Groundfish blocks: USA 3.0 USD/lb 2.5 Cod Imports Frozen Alaska pollock fillets: Germany...Jan-Dec......Jan-Jun ( tonnes) China USA Russian.F Others Total Source: Statistisches Bundesamt Imports Frozen Alaska pollock fillets: France...Jan-Dec......Jan-Jun ( tonnes) China Russian Fed USA Germany Others Total Source: National Trade Statistics 2.0 Alaska pollack 1.5 Hake Sep-02 Sep-03 Sep-04 Sep-05 Sep-06 Sep-07 Sep-08 Sep-09 Sep-10 Source: GLOBEFISH AN , , Imports Frozen cod fillets: Germany...Jan-Dec......Jan-Jun ( tonnes) China Poland Denmark Russia Iceland Norway Others Total Source: Statistisches Bundesamt

11 Forum and will certainly have an important impact on the outlook for COD US cod consumption has fallen by 59% between 1997 and 2009, from 0.5 kg/pc to 0.2 kg/pc. Strong demand in the UK and in southern Europe has boosted demand also thanks to the strong Euro. Cod was the eighth most consumed seafood species in the US last year, followed by clams and pangasius. In the EU, cod prices increased slightly as a result of the new regulations on EU catch certificates reducing import availability at the beginning of this year. HAKE Lower catches by Argentina Argentinean catches of hake in the first semester of 2010 were 16% lower than in the same period in 2009, totaling tonnes. Although all species showed declines, the most significant drop both in total landings and in relative terms, was shown by hoki (from tonnes in 2009 to tonnes in 2010, -27%). Landings of hubbsi hake between January and June totaled tonnes (-11,6%). Considering accumulated landings up to August, the drop is steeper for hoki (-33%), while landings of hubbsi registered a 7.6% reduction, totaling the Uruguayan fishing fleet out of operation for almost three months. Imports fell slightly in the first semester Exports of hake between January and June totaled tonnes worth USD 178 million. Compared with the same period in 2009, foreign trade fell 4% in terms of volume and 3% in terms of value, with a subsequent increase of 1% in unit value. However, export performance differed for individual species in the period reviewed. Exports of hubbsi grew 5% both in quantity and value, reaching tonnes and USD million, and accounting for 87% and 88% of total exports in terms of volume and value respectively. Sales of hoki, on the contrary, fell 40% in quantity and 36% in value, to tonnes and USD 19.2 million, and added to a drop in exports of Southern hake (although this species has a marginal share in trade), it drove down export figures in the first half of Frozen fillets are a more important export product, representing 57% and 68% of traded volume and value. Trade in this category fell 3% in quantity as a result of a 26% drop in hoki sales. Brazil was the destination for 45% of trade in the period reviewed. Unit value of frozen fillets grew 3% in comparison with the first semester of Uruguay purchased 92% of fresh whole hake exports, mainly for further processing and re-export. Exports of whole frozen fish fell by 11% in volume, as positive growth in sales of hubbsi could not compensate for the 52% drop in exports of hoki. Imports Frozen hake fillets: Germany...Jan-Dec......Jan-Jun ( tonnes) USA Argentina Peru Chile Russian Fed Others Total Source: Statistisches Bundesamt tonnes and tonnes respectively. Recently, the Federal Fishing Council set the Total Allowed Catch (TAC) of hoki for 2010 at tonnes, although the recommendation from the National Fisheries Research and Development Institute was for a lower TAC. The Argentinean and Uruguayan Sea Front Joint Technical Commission have established a fishing ban for the Common Fishing Zone between 1 October and 31 December. Catches in this area have been lower as a result of the fragile state of the resource as well as a strike that kept Imports Cod-like groundfish: USA...Jan-Dec......Jan-Jun ( tonnes) Fillets China Iceland Canada Norway Others Total Blocks/Slabs China Russian Fed Iceland Argentina Canada Norway Others Total Gr.

12 It is worth noting that in the first semester of 2010 Latin America was the main importer of Argentinean hake with 35% and 39% of total volume and value in 2010, against 28.6% and 30% in Driven by the increase in trade with Brazil and Uruguay, exports to Latin American countries grew by 19% in quantity and 27% in volume, totaling tonnes worth USD 69.5 million. The EU market is the second biggest importer in the period reviewed, with tonnes worth USD 63.2 million (33% and 35.5% of total trade respectively, and -10% and % in comparison with the same period in 2009). Sales to the US fell 46% in terms of volume. Supply to remain tight Supplies of hake from Argentina should not be expected to increase much, given the fragile state of the resource. Availability of hubbsi, although lower, is still at similar levels to those in Figures for hoki landings indicate that supply will certainly be considerably lower this year. The effect that this will have on prices will depend on demand from international markets and final availability of products. Lower catches, and higher export volumes indicate that supply for the domestic market could be lower, which might be reflected in an increase in the wholesale price index, which the Agriculture Ministry reported had fallen in May and June, but recovered in July and August by 8% and 2% respectively. OTHER GROUNDFISH SPECIES HADDOCK As far as haddock is concerned, prices are stable and the B-season fishing in the US went well. There is a quota increase forecast for next year. SAITHE There is strong demand for saithe in the EU and prices are increasing. At the beginning of the year, pollock, cod and haddock caught by Russian vessels (in the far East and Barents Sea) were not allowed to be imported by the EU as Russia had not notified the European Commission as to which authority would issue the required catch certificates. Also, no back-dating of certificates was possible even if Russia subsequently provided them. European buyers appealed for leeway on this issue before serious impacts on trade were felt, but fortunately Russia was able to supply the list of competent authorities by mid-february. In particular, in Germany, 25% of the tonnes of fish consumed every year is pollock, 50% of which is of Russian origin. As of 1 August this year, Russian fish produce entering the European Common Market will have to have a new health passport. This will include pollock, Pacific Russia s principal fish export to Europe. The new health safety document takes the place of an existing one, which will no longer be valid. OUTLOOK The outlook for groundfish markets is relatively positive in the short term also thanks to supply limitations for tilapia and pangasius. A quota increase is expected for Alaska pollock and haddock for next year. Supplies of hake from Argentina remain tight and with price increases expected. Following the slow recovery in the European economy, demand should firm up for groundfish products, including value added products such as surimi. NAMIBIAN HAKE REPORT Nambian hake landings Namibian landings of hake declined in the first quarter of 2010 to tonnes, compared with during the same period in For 2009 as a whole, Namibian landings of hake totalled tonnes, an 8% increase compared with Management measures to hake sector In general, landings of Namibian hake decreased between 2005 and 2008, and then picked up slightly from Signs of the hake fishery recovery were noted from 2008; hence the TAC and quota allocation increased slightly to tonnes in 2009 and to tonnes in the 2010 fishing season. However, actual catches have generally declined in 2010 mainly as a result of external economic weaknesses. Hake exports The main destination of Namibian hake products is the EU, in particular Spain. Traditionally Spain accounts for 70% of Namibian hake exports. These are sold mainly in whole frozen form. During 2009, Namibian exports of hake products fell by 46% to tonnes from tonnes in During the first quarter of 2010, hake exports (4 750 tonnes) were valued at about USD 14 4 million and in the second quarter of tonnes were exported valued at about USD 11.2 million. According to industry speculators, the future outlook for the sector still looks bleak because of the global economic recession coupled with the strengthening of the Namibian dollar (equivalent to South African Rand) against major currencies.
