The forecast for whole frozen Atlantic mackerel production in Germany's capture fisheries from 2024 to 2028 indicates a consistent decline. Starting in 2024 at 3.9 thousand metric tons, projections show a decrease to 2.92 thousand metric tons by 2028. Compared to 2023, which stood at 4.15 thousand metric tons, this represents a steady downward trend. The year-on-year variation from 2024 onwards exhibits negative growth, averaging an annual decrease of approximately 6.0% over the five-year period.
Future trends to watch for:
- Changes in regulatory policies or environmental conservation efforts.
- Adapting capture techniques to balance sustainability and demand.
- Potential shifts in consumer preferences towards alternative seafood options.
- Technological innovations in freezing and storage to expand export markets.
