In 2023, Italy led European mullet production in capture fisheries at 1.86 thousand metric tons, followed by Greece at 1.44 thousand metric tons. Croatia and the UK trailed significantly, at 0.0998 and 0.0436 thousand metric tons, respectively. Noteworthy changes in 2023 include a 15.76% increase in Ireland and a significant 15.42% drop in the UK. Cumulatively, the sector faces a downward trend with declines in major producers like Italy and Greece, alongside smaller markets. Future prospects may hinge on sustainable fishing practices, climate change adaptation, and domestic consumption patterns, influencing output continuity and growth dynamics.
