The production of whole frozen aquatic animals in capture fisheries in Germany is forecasted to decline each year from 2024 to 2028. In 2024, production stands at 10.25 thousand metric tons. This is expected to decrease to 9.25 thousand metric tons in 2025, representing a year-on-year decline of approximately 9.8%. The downward trend continues with an 8.26 thousand metric tons in 2026 (a 10.7% decrease), followed by 7.28 in 2027 (an 11.8% decrease), and finally reaching 6.31 in 2028 (a 13.3% decrease). The compound annual growth rate (CAGR) over these five years is minus, indicating persistent reduction.
Future trends to watch for include potential shifts in regulation aimed at sustainable fishing practices and environmental health concerns which could further impact production levels. Additionally, technological advancements in aquaculture might offer alternatives or supplements to wild capture fisheries, affecting supply dynamics.
