The European Whole Fresh Red Gurnard production data for 2023 indicates that Italy leads, followed by Malta and Spain. Significant year-on-year growth was observed in Italy and the UK, both seeing notable increases, while Malta and Belgium saw declines. Over the last five years, a consistent increase in capture fisheries' productivity is evident, especially in Southern Europe where growth exceeded 8% annually, notably in the UK, Portugal, and the Netherlands. In contrast, Malta recorded slight negative trends in value.
Future trends to watch include technology-driven efficiencies in fisheries, reinforcement of sustainable fishing policies, and the effects of climate change on fish stock distribution, all potentially impacting Gurnard production patterns across Europe.
