SRS in Chile: What El Niño Could Mean for Disease Risk

Could a strong El Niño make one of Chilean salmon farming's most persistent disease challenges even harder to manage?

We're taking a closer look at SRS and the potential risks facing Chilean salmon producers as warmer conditions develop ahead of the Southern Hemisphere summer. Learn what makes SRS particularly difficult to prevent and treat, how temperature can influence the spread and severity of the disease, and what happened during previous strong El Niño events. We also explore how better monitoring, new health solutions, and predictive models are giving producers more information to identify changing risks and act earlier.
