In 2023, Spain led European fresh plaice production in value per metric ton, with notable performances from Portugal and Sweden. Key year-on-year changes between 2022 and 2023 included Poland's significant 10.45% increase, while Germany and Ireland saw declines of 1.26% and 2.83%, respectively. France observed a robust 9.47% growth, while Denmark's production advanced by 5.97%. The UK's growth was modest at 2.84%, closely aligning with other countries such as Belgium and Norway.
Looking ahead, watch for production efficiencies and demand shifts, potentially influenced by sustainable fisheries management and climate change adaptations across European regions. Monitoring economic influences such as exchange rates and cross-border trade policies will also be crucial.
