The share of Italy's marine capture fisheries production volume has been forecasted to decline gradually from 2024 onwards. In 2024, it stands at 0.21% of global production, slightly decreasing to 0.2% in 2025 and 2026, and further to 0.19% by 2027 and 2028. Compared to 2023, where the exact share was slightly higher, this downward trend indicates a consistent year-on-year decline, stabilizing at a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) that points to a shrinking relative share over a five-year period.
Future trends to watch for:
- Environmental regulations and sustainable fishing practices impacting production volumes.
- Technological advancements improving efficiency in capture fisheries.
- Changing consumer preferences for sustainable and traceable seafood sources.
- The impact of geopolitical or economic instability on the fishing industry and related trade policies.
