In 2023, France led European Total Blonde Ray production in capture fisheries with a share of 34.66 metric tons, followed by Belgium (22.17) and the United Kingdom (20.09). Notably, France and Belgium showed substantial year-on-year increases of 11.7% and 11.56%, respectively. The rest experienced smaller growth, with Spain having a notable 17.57% rise. These figures highlight robust growth trends across most nations, reflecting increased fishing efforts or improved stocks over the last two years.
Looking ahead, factors such as EU fishing policy changes and environmental conditions will significantly influence production, as sustainable practices gain importance. Watch for potential shifts in dominant producing countries based on regulatory and ecological changes.
