The forecast for whole fresh aquatic animals production in French capture fisheries for human consumption indicates a consistent decline from 2024 to 2028. The projected output decreases from 140.85 thousand metric tons in 2024 to 127.74 thousand metric tons in 2028, reflecting a downward trend. Comparing this to 2023, the production level experienced a moderate drop, reinforcing this negative trajectory. The year-on-year change shows an average decline around 2-3%. Over the five-year forecast period, the compound annual growth rate (CAGR) suggests a gradual decrease in production levels.
Future trends to watch for include shifts in consumer preferences towards sustainable seafood, impacts of climate change on fish populations, and potential adjustments in policies governing capture fisheries. Moreover, technological advancements in marine conservation could play a pivotal role in influencing future production levels.
