In 2023, Italy's fresh pilotfish production in capture fisheries stood at 71.4 metric tons. From 2024 onwards, a gradual decline is forecasted, dropping from 70.6 metric tons in 2024 to 67.9 metric tons in 2028. Key year-on-year variations are -1.3% to -0.7%, contributing to an estimated five-year compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of approximately -1.2%.
Future trends to watch for:
- Environmental policies and regulations affecting fishery practices.
- Market demand fluctuations and consumer preferences for seafood.
- Impact of climate change on marine ecosystems and fish populations.
