In 2023, Germany's fresh European perch production in capture fisheries stood at an actual volume of 90 metric tons. The forecast from 2024 to 2028 shows a consistent declining trend with values at 85.85, 80.11, 74.4, 68.71, and 63.06 metric tons, respectively. The year-on-year decreases are approximately 6.7% from 2024 to 2025, 7.1% from 2025 to 2026, 7.7% from 2026 to 2027, and 8.2% from 2027 to 2028.
