The Netherlands leads European fresh turbot production in capture fisheries, despite a recent 5% decline. Denmark and the UK follow, with slight variations. Smaller producers like Portugal and Spain showed positive growth at 16.89% and 2.62%, respectively. In contrast, Belgium, Italy, and several Eastern European countries saw notable declines in production. A significant contraction occurred in minor producers such as Slovenia and countries with small production volumes including Norway, Lithuania, and Latvia.
Future trends to watch include advances in sustainable fishing practices, the impact of climate change on fish habitats, and the growing demand for locally sourced seafood. Additionally, economic recovery post-2023 might spur investment and yield production growth in key regions.
