en.Wedoany.com Reported - During the 2026 Public Report (corresponding to 2025 activities) held on May 14 at the Empormontt Civic Port Connection Center, Los Ríos Regional Governor Alejandro Santana highlighted several regional economic development initiatives. Among the plans to strengthen productive development, he explicitly mentioned the "Salmon 2050 Plan."
In the segment of the report concerning innovation and production promotion, Santana elaborated on the coordination mechanisms between the public and private sectors, aimed at strengthening investment, coordinating regional land use, and creating economic opportunities. He included the "Salmon 2050 Plan" among a series of projects related to innovation, circular economy, and regional development, pointing out that it represents a new form of investment, namely public-private partnerships.
This mention echoed several institutional signals conveyed that day. In his congratulatory message to the public report, President José Antonio Kast emphasized the need to promote industries crucial for regional development, specifically listing salmon farming alongside tourism, forestry, and dairy as key sectors for economic growth in the southern macro-zone.
On the eve of the report presentation, Puerto Montt Mayor Rodrigo Wainraihgt stated that the "Salmon 2050 Plan" was jointly proposed with Governor Santana, aiming to eliminate various obstacles hindering the development of the salmon farming industry. He pointed out: "If Puerto Montt has the second most important industry in Chile... a plan should be established to remove all barriers impeding its development." The plan has currently incorporated the participation of several political figures from the southern macro-zone, including regional governors, mayors, and parliamentarians.
It is reported that the Regional Government of Los Ríos is one of the sponsors of a meeting to be held in Puerto Montt on May 28. This event, organized by Mundo Acuícola through Salmon Meets, will bring together authorities, industry associations, producers, suppliers, researchers, and relevant participants from the aquaculture ecosystem to review the history, current state, and future challenges of the Chilean salmon farming industry.
