Footnote- Figures for Argyll & Clyde and the North Coast & West Highlands have been merged due to commercial confidentiality. Other finfish species including brown/sea trout, rainbow trout, halibut and cleaner fish were produced but cannot be attributed Scottish Marine Regions due to commercial confidentiality. Average prices (real) have been adjusted for inflation based on 2019 price estimates.

This map has the same areas shown as Figure 4. It has different colours for each region to tie in with data shown on the line graphs below.
Two line graphs. The first one showing Salmon tonnes data from 2010 through to 2019. The second one showing the Value of the salmon for the years 2010 through to 2019. The data is split into the Scottish Marine Regions described in figures 4 and in the map above.
