According to the director of the fishing and aquaculture station, this is the second shipment to Senegal, as the freshwater fish is highly prized.

A business operator from the Blida region exported twenty-seven quintals of various fish. Ministry officials are conducting a large-scale campaign to replenish this aquatic resource, which is in great demand in many countries worldwide. Efforts are being made at all levels to ensure overproduction, which will be destined exclusively for export.
