Luxembourg: Aquaculture production (metric tons)

Key figures

What the numbers say

In 2024, Luxembourg's aquaculture production (metric tons) did not change 0 on 2023 (from 8 to 8).

Across the 30 yearly changes before that (1994 to 2023), the average change was +0.27 and a typical year strayed about 1.05 from that (the standard deviation). This year's change was 0.3 standard deviations below that average, so it was an ordinary year: it sits within the range of normal year-to-year movement.

On record, the biggest yearly rise was 5 in 2000. 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 there is no clear straight-line trend: a straight line explains less than 1% of the movement over 10 observed years, so the value is moving around more than it is heading anywhere.

Worked out from the yearly values above. How the checks work: standard deviation, z-scores and straight-line trends.
