In 2023, the total European conger production in capture fisheries in Italy stood as a baseline for the forecasted data. From 2024 to 2028, a slight increase in value per metric ton is anticipated, rising from 2.53 to 2.59 thousand euros. This suggests a subdued but positive trend, with year-on-year increases ranging around 0.39%-0.78%. The compound annual growth rate (CAGR) from 2024 to 2028 indicates a modest average annual growth, underlining stability in this segment.
Future trends to watch for include potential impacts from climate change on marine ecosystems, shifts in consumer preferences possibly influencing conger demand, and regulatory changes affecting fishing practices and production efficiency in Europe.
