In 2023, the production value of shrimps and prawns in Germany's capture fisheries was estimated. From 2024 to 2028, the forecast shows a gradual increase in value from 5.45 to 5.92 thousand euros per metric ton. Year-on-year variations from 2024 to 2028 indicate a steady progression with an annual growth rate of approximately 2.2%. This reflects an optimistic trend driven by increased demand and possible efficiency gains in production.

Future trends to watch for include:

Impact of sustainable fishing practices on production costs and market value.
Changes in consumer preferences towards sustainable seafood options.
Potential disruptions from climate change affecting shrimp and prawn ecosystems.
Regulatory developments influencing the capture fisheries sector.
