The production of fresh lobsters in the UK's capture fisheries is forecasted to decline from 6.36 thousand metric tons in 2024 to 5.41 thousand metric tons by 2028. Compared to 2023, where production stood at 6.60 thousand metric tons, this reflects a continuous decrease in output. The year-on-year variations are negative, with the production figures declining progressively over the forecast period. The compound annual growth rate (CAGR) over this five-year period indicates a steady average reduction annually.
Future trends to watch include the impact of sustainable fishing practices, regulatory changes, and climate change on lobster habitats. Additionally, fluctuations in market demand and shifts in consumer preferences could further influence production levels.
