In 2023, whole fresh marine crustaceans production in capture fisheries for human consumption in Italy stood at a significant level, indicating a robust industry presence. For 2024, forecasted values at 16.36 thousand euros per metric ton suggest a promising upward trajectory through 2028, where values are expected to reach 19.29 thousand euros per metric ton. This represents a steady year-on-year growth, with notable increments in value each year. The compound annual growth rate (CAGR) over these five years indicates a consistent upward trend, reflecting potential opportunities in the industry.
Future trends to watch for include:
- Sustainability practices affecting capture fisheries output and market pricing.
- Potential impacts of climate change on marine biodiversity, influencing production yields.
- Shifts in consumer preferences that could alter demand for specific types of crustaceans.
- Technological advancements in capture mechanisms and supply chain efficiencies.
