The fresh blue shark production for human consumption in Italy is on a gradual decline from 2024 to 2028. The forecasted value decreases from 3.57 to 3.51 thousand euros per metric ton by 2028. Year-on-year variations show minor fluctuations, with the largest decrease at the beginning of the period. The compound annual growth rate (CAGR) reflects a slight negative trend.
Future trends to watch for include:
- Potential regulatory impacts from environmental policies aimed at protecting shark populations that could further influence production volumes and prices.
- Changing consumer preferences towards sustainable seafood options which could affect demand.
