In 2023, Cyprus led European total monkfish production in capture fisheries with a value of 9.59 thousand euros per metric ton. Other notable producers included Italy with 7.0, Spain with 6.71, and Croatia with 6.5. France, Greece, and Iceland followed with values of 5.59, 4.41, and 3.31, respectively. Noteworthy variations from the prior year included Cyprus experiencing a significant increase of 14.01%, while other countries saw more modest changes, like Spain with 0.33% and Croatia with 1.32%. Greece's production rose by 3.41%, and France by 0.42%, whereas Iceland remained relatively stable with a 0.15% increase.
Future trends to watch for involve potential shifts in production capacities and market demands in Europe. Keep an eye on environmental policies potentially affecting fishing quotas and practices. The expansion of sustainable fishing practices might also influence production levels and economic outputs in key countries like Cyprus and Spain, offering both opportunities and challenges.
