The forecast for Blue Shark production in capture fisheries for human consumption in Italy shows a significant decline from 2024 to 2028, with values dropping steadily each year from 15 metric tons in 2024 to 3.2 metric tons in 2028. This shows a high negative year-on-year change: approximately -20% from 2024 to 2025, -24.2% from 2025 to 2026, -33% from 2026 to 2027, and about -47.5% from 2027 to 2028. The compound annual growth rate (CAGR) over these five years implies a sharp downward trend in production.
Future trends to watch for:
- Rising environmental concerns could further decrease capture fisheries output.
- Regulatory changes to protect Blue Shark populations may impact future quotas.
- Advancements in sustainable fishing practices could alter forecasted trajectories.
