A trout reproduction plant in Lake Titicaca, located at Chicharro, 120 kilometers from the Bolivian city of La Paz, was opened today with the participation of the authorities from Peru and Bolivia.

The plant, which will have a reproduction capacity of 240,000 trout on its first phase, is promoted by the Binational Authority of Lake Titicaca, ALT, and the Chicharro’s fish farming association.

The financial and technical support of ALT aimed at strengthening the fish farming activity of this association, through the implementation of a water distribution system in pipes and a system of incubators and throughs or boxes.

The plant will increase its current trout production, which totaled 20,000 per month.
