The total whiting fish production in capture fisheries in the UK is forecasted to see a modest increase from 11.72 thousand metric tons in 2024 to 11.75 thousand metric tons in 2028. Year-on-year variations show barely perceptible growth throughout this period, each year increasing only by approximately 0.0085%. Given that the production level in 2023 stood at 11.71 thousand metric tons, the compound annual growth rate (CAGR) from 2024 to 2028 is minimal, reflecting a stable but nearly stagnant trend in production volume.

Future trends to watch for:

Potential impacts of climate change on fish populations and catchability which may alter these projections.
Policies around sustainable fishing practices could influence future production levels.
Market demand shifts, either increasing or decreasing, due to changing consumer preferences or economic conditions.
