Due to the poor catch of salmon in the fishing season, the output of Russian caviar dropped sharply this year, leading to an increase in the price of Russian caviar in the domestic market.

According to the latest data of the Russian Institute of Fisheries and Oceanography, the catch of pink salmon, red salmon, silver salmon and other salmon species in Russia this year barely exceeded 260000 tons, a decrease of twice as much as that in 2021, which directly led to the decline of the output of red caviar in the country, which is only 15000 tons at present, compared with 20000 tons in 2021.
