The European Whole Fresh Axillary Seabream production in 2023 saw Spain leading with 426.99 metric tons, followed closely by Portugal at 407.92 metric tons. France, Greece, and Italy recorded productions of 168.7, 110.69, and 89.3 metric tons, respectively. Notably, the heaviest decline was in Italy at 15.8%, while Malta saw a substantial increase of 26.67%. Over the last five years, the compound annual growth rate for key producing countries has reflected shifts in fishing practices and environmental regulations.
Looking forward, the seafood industry in Europe should consider emerging sustainable practices and climate impacts on seabream populations. Innovation in capture techniques and increased inter-country collaboration could mitigate declines seen in traditional fishing grounds, ensuring resilience and sustainability. Monitoring environmental changes and adapting policies will be vital for maintaining production levels.
