The forecast for fresh surmullet production in Italy's capture fisheries shows a declining trend from 2024 to 2028. In 2024, production is expected to be 1.01 thousand metric tons. This represents a decline from 2023, where the actual production stood higher than 1.01. By 2028, the production is projected to decrease further to 0.6241 thousand metric tons, marking a significant reduction over the five years. Annually, this trend shows a year-on-year decline, with the compound annual growth rate (CAGR) suggesting an average reduction each year across the forecast period.
Future trends to watch for include the impact of sustainable fishing practices and regulatory changes, which could influence capture volumes. Additionally, shifts in consumer demand or climate change effects on fish habitats may alter these projections. Continuous monitoring of these factors will be essential for anticipating further changes in production trends.
