Five countries dominate gilthead seabream production—Greece, Israel, Italy, Spain, and Turkey (listed in descending order of production). It is still a relatively small industry, accounting for just over 3% of the global marine finfish production assessed by GAPI (113,761 mT). The overall species score is 57, besting the global average of 50. Italy leads producing countries (65), and the worst-performing producer is Turkey (55). Intercountry variation in scores is due primarily to those indicators most affected by proportion in land-based facilities: industrial energy (INDE), biochemical oxygen demand (BOD), antifoulants (COP), escapes (ESC), and pathogens (PATH).
