The forecast for headed, gutted fresh sharks, rays, and chimaeras production in UK capture fisheries shows a gradual decline from 2024 to 2028. Starting at 1.74 thousand euros per metric ton in 2024, the value is anticipated to decrease to 1.68 by 2028. This represents a CAGR of approximately -0.87% from 2024 to 2028. The year-on-year percentage variations illustrate a consistent downward trend, with small but steady decreases each year.
Future trends to watch for include shifts in global demand for shark and ray products, potential regulatory changes impacting the fisheries sector, and environmental factors that might affect species availability and abundance in UK waters.
