Veda de camarón impacta ventas y pesca artesanal en La Libertad.

The shrimp fishing ban, in effect from May 2nd to June 15th, is impacting the income of merchants and artisanal fishermen in the port of La Libertad. Some say operating costs have increased due to the price of bait and the lack of permitted nets. Vendors also report a decrease of up to 50% in seafood sales, as they seek alternatives to maintain economic activity in the seafood market. (Television report)
