The forecast for fresh European plaice production in capture fisheries for human consumption in France indicates a continuous decline from 2024 to 2028. Starting from an estimated value of 2.24 million euros in 2024, the figures are expected to decrease annually, reaching 1.51 million euros by 2028. This equates to an approximate CAGR of -8.9% over the five-year period.
Year-on-year declines can be seen, with a notable drop of approximately 8.2% from 2024 to 2025 and a consistent decrease in subsequent years. This downward trend demands attention from stakeholders within the French fisheries industry.
Future trends to watch include potential impacts from regulatory changes, shifts in consumer demand towards sustainable fish sources, and environmental factors affecting fish stocks. Adapting to these changes will be critical for maintaining industry viability.
