In 2023, France led the European whole fresh brill production in capture fisheries with 106.99 metric tons, followed by Portugal and Greece with 65.6 and 60.25 metric tons, respectively. Notably, Italy experienced a substantial increase of 197.66%, while Denmark showed a significant growth of 24.57%. Conversely, Sweden and Slovenia saw declines of 10.57% and 4.75%, respectively. The average annual growth rate over the past five years indicates a trend of mixed but often positive growth in production across various countries.
Looking ahead, several factors could influence future brill production trends in Europe, including climate change impacts on fish habitats, regulatory changes on sustainable fishing practices, and technological innovations in fishing and aquaculture. Countries with developing brill sectors might particularly watch for opportunities to expand sustainably while maintaining regulatory compliance.
