As of 2023, the total tench production in capture fisheries for human consumption in Germany stood at 0.21 metric tons. From 2024 to 2026, the production is forecasted to remain stable at 0.21 metric tons. However, a slight decrease to 0.2 metric tons is projected for 2027 and 2028, showing a relatively constant trend with a small decline at the end of the period. The year-on-year variation percentages show stability initially with a -4.76% drop beginning in 2027. The compound annual growth rate (CAGR) for the five years is anticipated to be slightly negative due to this decline.

Future trends to watch for:

Potential measures to maintain or boost tench populations to counteract the decline.
Impact of environmental or regulatory changes on capture fisheries.
Shifts in consumer demand for freshwater fish such as tench, influencing market dynamics.
