In 2023, the production of freshwater and diadromous fishes in UK capture fisheries for human consumption stood at 6.57 thousand euros per metric ton. Forecasts from 2024 to 2028 suggest a stable growth, with value projections ranging from 6.58 to 6.61 thousand euros per metric ton. This represents an incremental year-on-year growth, including a visible CAGR over the forecast period, indicating a steady but modest increase in value.

Future trends to watch include:

Potential impact of environmental policies on fishery practices.
Technological advancements in capture methods affecting production efficiency.
Changes in consumer preferences impacting demand for freshwater and diadromous species.
Effects of Brexit and trade negotiations on fisheries economics.
