Consequently, the forecast for 2024 indicates a decrease to 50.614 million euros (a drop of approximately 3.6% from 2023), while 2025 shows a further decrease to 49.111 million euros (a 3% reduction from 2024). The declining trend continues through 2028, with production expected to reduce by around 3.5% annually, reaching 44.691 million euros. Over five years, the compound annual growth rate points to an average decline of approximately 3.1% annually.
Future trends to watch for include potential impacts of climate change on marine biodiversity, regulatory changes in fisheries management, and technological advancements in sustainable harvesting practices. Attention to consumer preferences towards sustainability could also influence future market dynamics.
