The forecast for fresh Atlantic mackerel production in capture fisheries for human consumption in the UK indicates a steady increase in value from 2024 to 2028. In 2024, the value is expected to be 1.52 thousand euros per metric ton, gradually rising to 1.65 thousand euros per metric ton by 2028. Since 2023 data is not available, we focus on the year-on-year variations: 2025 will see a 1.97% increase, with subsequent years showing similar incremental trends. The compound annual growth rate (CAGR) over the five-year period from 2024 to 2028 stands at approximately 1.67%.
Future trends to monitor include potential shifts in consumer demand towards sustainable seafood, regulatory impacts on fishing quotas, and climate change effects on mackerel populations that may influence market dynamics and production values.
