Highlights

  • The total quantity of landings by UK vessels (tonnes) decreased in August 2025 compared to 2024, down 9%. The value of landings in August 2025 (£82.3) decreased compared to 2024 down by 9%.
  • Landings in August 2025 were comprised of more Pelagic species (65%). This was driven by uptake of Herring. This is in line with the expected seasonality of Herring stocks where landings are typically higher in summer months (June - August). Pelagic, Demersal and Shellfish species each accounted for a similar amount of value of landings, 35%, 33% and 32%, respectively.
