Chilean operation in the Antarctic krill fishery, years 2021–2022

This paper provides a summary description and analysis of the activities the Chilean fishing ship Antarctic Endeavour carried out in the Antarctic krill (Euphausia superba) fishery to produce krill meal between January and July 2022. The effort, catch, CPUE, and length-frequency distributions of captured krill are recorded per trip and subarea. Also, trip-by-trip bycatch data from each subarea is provided. Information is also given on the yield obtained in krill fishmeal production and the reduction process conversion factor. Finally, this vessel's performance is compared in the fourth periods it fished for krill.
