In 2023, the total Atlantic Halibut production in capture fisheries in the UK stood firmly prior to the forecasted declining trend in value. Starting from 2024, there is a projected year-on-year decline at an average rate of 1.4% annually through 2028. The value per metric ton is forecasted to decrease from 8.33 thousand euros in 2024 to 7.86 thousand euros in 2028, indicating a consistent downward trend over this five-year period.
Future trends to watch for include:
- Shifts in demand due to changes in dietary preferences and sustainability concerns.
- Impact of regulatory changes on fishing quotas and conservation efforts.
- Technological advancements in fishing practices that may influence production efficiency.
- Possible economic impact from global market fluctuations and trade agreements.
