In 2023, the Netherlands led European fresh turbot production in capture fisheries with 1.51 thousand metric tons, albeit experiencing a 5.0% decline from the previous year. The United Kingdom saw moderate growth at 1.65%, while Portugal showed significant expansion with a 16.91% increase. In sharp contrast, Slovenia ceased production. Most other countries observed declines, with Italy and Norway facing substantial reductions of over 30% and 23%, respectively. Overall, the compounded annual growth rate (CAGR) indicates a varying trend with a mixture of minor growth and significant declines across countries over the past five years.
Looking ahead, it's crucial to monitor the effects of policy changes on sustainability practices and market demand shifts driven by consumer preferences, which could impact production trends. Nations such as Portugal might continue their upward trajectory, while others may struggle to stabilize or grow their output in this sector.
