The ban on hunting hilsa during the breeding season expired at 12 noon on Wednesday. Meanwhile, since the end of the ban, a lot of hilsa has been grown in Patuakhali markets since Thursday morning. Most of the mother hilsa large. Apart from this, the price has also come down a lot as a lot of small size hilsa have entered the market. Buyers are buying a lot of hilsa.
The main breeding season of the hilsa is from October 14 to November 4, during these 22 days the obtaining, transport, storage, marketing, purchase, sale and exchange of hilsa were prohibited throughout the country.
Shortly after the hilsa fishing ban was lifted at midnight yesterday, I visited the New Market in Patuakhali this morning and saw that a large number of hilsa had arrived. Most of the hilsa has been frozen in coccyx boxes. The merchants are negotiating with the shopkeepers, they open the boxes and take out the frozen thread. Dedar is being sold because a lot of hilsa has hit the market and the price is also relatively low. However, fish traders said that there are still ripe eggs in the stomach of the large hilsa.
Monir Hossain, a fish trader at the market, said the price has dropped due to the sudden influx of hilsa. The small yarn has been sold for Rs 250 to Rs 300 per kg. This hilsa has been sold before at Rs 350 to Rs 450 per kg. Hilsa of 500 g in size is sold at Tk 400 per kg, hilsa of 800 g to 1 kg in size is sold at Tk 650 to 1000 rupees. However, vendors said that all large hilsa fish have eggs in their stomachs.
