Trident Seafoods announced a number of measures over the weekend that bode poorly for the Alaska salmon market, including an early end to its salmon buying season across much of the state.

Industry analysts point to diminishing consumer interest in salmon, and a glut of inventory from last year’s record harvest ofpointed to another factor

“Last week, Russia harvested pink volume equivalent to our entire Alaska pink annual forecast, and they have shown a willingness to offload inventory at very low prices in part to fund the war in Ukraine,” the letter stated. “We haven’t seen a collapse in value like this since the 1990s, when pinks went well under ten cents a pound.

The prospects for chum salmon are bleak, too, with Trident offering a ceiling of just 20 cents per pound across the entire state, “as chum markets have collapsed.”
