In 2023, the production value of fresh scorpionfishes and rockfishes in Italy stood at a lower level compared to forecasted figures for the subsequent years. From 2024 to 2028, the forecast indicates a consistent increase in value, growing from 12.66 to 14.22 thousand euros per metric ton. This reflects a steady upward trend with a CAGR of approximately 2.90% over the five-year period. Year-on-year growth rates hover around 3%, signifying a healthy increase in value.
Looking ahead, future trends to watch include changes in consumer preferences towards sustainably sourced seafood, regulatory impacts on fishery practices, and economic factors affecting pricing. Additionally, environmental shifts may influence fish populations, subsequently altering supply dynamics.
