The Netherlands leads European production of whole fresh grey gurnard for human consumption with 426.82 metric tons in 2023. France and Spain follow, producing 145.54 and 102.15 metric tons, respectively. The year-on-year change in production in 2023 shows significant growth for Spain (18.01%) and Denmark (39.49%), whereas France and Belgium experienced notable declines of -13.46% and -18.09%, respectively. Over the last five years, countries like Denmark and Netherlands show a positive trend, while others like France and Belgium see production diminish steadily.
Future trends to watch include potential for increased production from currently leading countries as market demand grows. Concurrently, there may be opportunities for smaller producers to expand capacity if sustainable practices and consumer interest continue to rise. Countries with declining trends might focus on enhancing their capture fisheries efficiency and market strategies to regain stronger positions.
