The forecast for total cuttlefish and bobtail squids production in capture fisheries for human consumption in the UK reflects a steady increase in value from 2024 to 2028, with values ranging from 3.75 thousand euros per metric ton in 2024 to 4.05 thousand euros per metric ton in 2028. This represents a consistent upward trend with an average annual growth rate (CAGR) over the five-year period. In 2023, actual values stood at a baseline preceding these forecasts.
Future trends to watch for include impacts of environmental factors on fisheries, regulatory changes, and shifts in consumer demand for sustainably sourced seafood, which could influence production volumes and market value dynamics beyond 2028.
