In 2023, Italy's fresh cuttlefish production in capture fisheries is not specified, but data projections indicate a consistent decline over the next five years. From 2024 to 2028, production is expected to decrease from 2.61 to 1.3 thousand metric tons.
Year-on-year, the production declines by approximately 13% each year. This continued decrease indicates a significant downward trend in production. The Compound Annual Growth Rate (CAGR) over these five years is negative, reflecting an intensified reduction pace in the capture fisheries volume.
Future trends to watch for include the potential impacts of climate change, regulatory changes in fishing policies, and the sustainability initiatives that could affect cuttlefish stock management. These factors could further influence production levels or initiate recovery initiatives.
