The forecast for whole fresh picked dogfish production in the UK capture fisheries for human consumption from 2024 to 2028 shows a decreasing trend. In 2023, the value stood at its baseline prior to the forecasted values. Over the years, there is a predicted year-on-year decrease, dropping from 72.44 thousand Euros in 2024 to 55.28 thousand Euros in 2028. This equates to an average year-on-year decrease of approximately 5% over the five-year period.
Future trends to watch include:
- Potential changes in fishing regulations and quotas that may impact production levels.
- Shifts in consumer preferences towards sustainable seafood which could alter demand.
- Environmental changes affecting fish populations and the overall ecosystem.
