The forecast for Italy's fresh seafood production in capture fisheries from 2024 to 2028 indicates a slight decline. Starting at 2.8 thousand metric tons in 2024 and 2025, it inches down to 2.79 in 2026, 2.78 in 2027, and 2.77 by 2028. Assuming 2023 was the baseline year, these outputs suggest a small contraction over the forecasted period. This can be expressed as an average annual decline, or CAGR, highlighting the minimal but consistent downward trend.
Future trends to watch include changes in environmental regulations, impacts of climate change, advancements in sustainable fishing practices, and shifts in consumer demand for seafood. These factors could significantly impact production levels and strategies in the coming years.
