Future trends to watch for include:

The impact of climate change on mussel habitats and productivity.
Regulatory changes affecting marine capture fisheries in the European Union.
Market demand pressures linked to changing consumer preferences toward sustainable seafood.
Technological innovations in aquaculture and capture methodologies that may influence costs and yield improvements.
