The European fresh Atlantic horse mackerel production landscape shows Spain as the dominant player, contributing nearly half of the total share. Portugal follows, constituting over a third of the production. France, Norway, and Italy jointly cover less than ten percent, while other countries like the Netherlands, Denmark, and Croatia contribute minimally. Year-on-year data from 2023 indicates decreases in major contributors like Spain and France, with remarkable growth seen in Sweden and Denmark.
Future trends to watch include potential further declines in larger countries, possible growth in minor producers leveraging sustainable practices, and shifts due to environmental policies affecting capture fisheries. Technologies enhancing catch efficiency and sustainability will likely play critical roles in shaping future outcomes.
