In 2023, Italy's whole fresh skipjack tuna production in capture fisheries for human consumption stood at a much lower level than the forecast for 2024, marking the beginning of an upward trend. From 2024 to 2028, there is a robust increase, as the production volume is forecasted to grow annually. Year-on-year variations indicate steady growth, with a particularly significant CAGR seen from 2024 to 2028, indicative of strong market demand and effective fisheries management.

Future trends to watch for include:

Potential impacts of climate change on tuna populations and resulting production volumes.
Regulatory and sustainability challenges impacting fisheries and potential restrictions.
Shifts in consumer preferences towards sustainable and ethically sourced seafood.
