Over the past decade, Germany's total aquaculture production has exhibited considerable volatility. From 2013 to 2023, there were significant year-on-year fluctuations, with notable increases in 2015 and 2016 and sharp declines in 2017 and 2020. As of 2023, production stood at 38.54 thousand metric tons, reflecting only a slight decrease of 0.14% from the previous year, showing stabilization in recent years. The CAGR over the last five years (2018-2023) is 2.42%, indicating moderate growth despite the yearly variations.
Going forward, forecasted data suggests that production levels will remain relatively stable, with a minor decreasing trend. From 2024 to 2028, the projected 5-year CAGR is -0.1%, reflecting an overall slight decline in production over the forecasted period.
Future trends to watch for include environmental regulations, technological innovations in aquaculture, market demand shifts towards sustainability, and potential impacts of climate change on production capabilities. These factors could significantly influence the stability and growth of the aquaculture sector in Germany.
