The production of fresh clams, cockles, and arkshells in France's capture fisheries is projected to grow steadily from 2024 to 2028. In 2023, the production level stood at a low, setting a baseline for subsequent forecasted increases. The annual growth rates from 2024 through 2028 show an upward trend, with year-on-year increases consistently above the historical average, maintaining a Compound Annual Growth Rate (CAGR) indicative of a healthy upward trajectory.
Future trends to watch for include:
- Impact of environmental regulations on sustainable fishing practices.
- Market demand shifts due to consumer preferences for sustainable seafood.
- Potential influence of climate change on marine biodiversity affecting supply.
