This growth, as he explained, is due to the better results of sectors such as mining, agriculture and fishing, which in recent months have shown significant progress.
“The recovery of the Fishing sector would be due to the normalization of sea temperatures, which is facilitating the return of anchovy for industrial use, causing said sector to close with a growth of approximately 104%,” he added.
Regarding the mining sector, Carlos Posada pointed out that shipments abroad in this area will register an increase of 15%, due to the greater shipment of gold and silver. Agro, meanwhile, will present a growth of 20% due to higher sales of blueberries and avocado.
