The production of fresh crabs and sea-spiders in capture fisheries for human consumption in Germany is forecasted to decline steadily from 4.77 metric tons in 2024 to 4.6 metric tons in 2028. This represents a year-on-year decrease of about 1% over each year. Compared to its value in 2023, this indicates a clear downtrend with a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of approximately -0.9% over the forecasted period.
Future trends to watch for include:
- Potential changes in environmental regulations affecting fisheries.
- Shifts in consumer demand towards sustainable seafood options.
- Innovation in aquaculture that might substitute for capture fisheries.
