Consumer psychology worries about whether eelen domestic eels can continue to eat a record-breaking continuation before the day of mid-career Ox (20). However, when it is said to Miyazaki's nursery fishermen, "Eels actually surplus without selling."
Production volume Within Miyazaki prefecture, the third largest in the country, shipping of a semi-annual "Shinko eel" shoveled with thin skin and plump body was developed ahead of the whole country as of the end of June, as the larvae that flew this year grew. Initially it was anticipated that "the number of shipments will be insufficient for demand." In the summary of Prefectural Fisheries Policy Division, the harvest of Shirasu eel in this term (December 11, 2017 - March 25, 18) is 99.4 kilometers. It is because it decreased to 1/4 compared with 412 km in the previous term (November 24, 2004 - March 8, 2005).
However, when opening the lid, it seems that domestic production is not selling and it is catching on. One of the fish farmers said, "Despite shipments of about 10% of the previous year, buyers are not tied, and many unusual situations are surplus."
The prefecture nutrient fishery cooperative association is analyzing that the domestic demand for which the price rose due to fishing failure of frying fish has shifted to a cheaper foreign domestic product. A couple of years ago, many of the restaurant outlets including old-fashioned kabuki-yaki shops started switching stocks to foreign domestic products. This trend became more noticeable this year, imported goods accounted for nearly 90% of the market.
