In 2023, France led European Total Nursehound Production in capture fisheries with 658.23 Metric Tons, showing an 8.49% increase from the previous year. Portugal followed with 418.82 Metric Tons, declining by 2.65%. Belgium and Spain saw production at 54.7 and 53.8 Metric Tons, respectively, with Spain experiencing a significant 106.58% increase. Conversely, Italy, Malta, and Croatia produced lesser amounts, with Italy and Malta experiencing slight declines. The forecast indicates stability in growth for France, while Portugal may continue to decline mildly. Emerging markets like Spain could see further expansions, given the recent trends.
Future trends to watch include the impact of EU fisheries policies on quotas and sustainability practices, which may influence production levels. Innovation and investment in technology could also drive efficiency and output, with environmental considerations becoming increasingly critical in fisheries management strategies across the region.
