The production value of whole fresh sharks, rays, and chimaeras in Italy's capture fisheries is expected to exhibit a steady increase from 2024 to 2028, starting at 4.05 thousand euros per metric ton and reaching 4.10 by 2028. The data illustrates a stable year-on-year growth pattern of approximately 0.25% to 0.5% annually. In 2023, the production value stood at 4.04 thousand euros per metric ton. The five-year compound annual growth rate (CAGR) indicates a positive trend, with projections showing a consistent yet modest rise.
Future trends to watch for include potential shifts in demand influenced by consumer preferences and regulatory changes in marine wildlife protection. Additionally, advancements in sustainable fishing practices and international trade policies may impact the production value and overall market dynamics in the coming years.
