Slovenia: Total fisheries production (metric tons)

Key figures

What the numbers say

In 2024, Slovenia's total fisheries production (metric tons) fell 5.4% on 2023 (from 1,400 to 1,325).

Across the 30 yearly changes before that (1994 to 2023), the average change was −1.7% and a typical year strayed about 12.7% 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 33% in 2011 and the biggest yearly fall was 37.1% in 1993. 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 downward, about 77.6 a year. A straight line explains 48% of the movement over 10 observed years.
