The production of whole fresh flounders, halibuts, and soles in capture fisheries for human consumption in France is forecasted to decline moderately from 2024 to 2028. Starting at 3.48 thousand metric tons in 2024, it is projected to decrease to 3.15 thousand metric tons by 2028. This represents an average annual compound growth rate (CAGR) of approximately -1.93% over the five-year period. The year-on-year decrease ranges from roughly -2.3% to -2.6%. This suggests a consistent trend of diminishing production levels.
Future trends to watch for include potential regulatory changes impacting fisheries, technological advancements in sustainable fishing methods, and shifts in consumer preferences towards more sustainable seafood options, which could all influence capture rates and demand.
