What the numbers say
In 2024, Honduras' total fisheries production (metric tons) fell 20.5% on 2023 (from 123,550 to 98,204).

On record, the biggest yearly rise was 98.9% in 1986 and the biggest yearly fall was 35.8% in 1966. The numbers show how large and when, not why; for the cause, look at what happened in that country in those years.
From 2015 to 2024 the straight-line trend is upward, about 4,753 a year. A straight line explains 74% of the movement over 10 observed years.
