The forecast for fresh aquatic animal production in capture fisheries for human consumption in France from 2024 to 2028 shows a declining trend. The annual production is expected to decrease gradually from 189.66 metric tons in 2024 to 185.21 metric tons by 2028. This represents a consistent year-on-year decrease, with the compound annual growth rate (CAGR) indicating a slight downward trend over this period. As of 2023, these values were slightly higher, reflecting a gradual decrease over the subsequent years.
Future trends to watch for include:
- Impacts of climate change and environmental policies on marine resources and fishery yields.
- Technological advancements in sustainable fishing techniques.
- Shifts in consumer preferences towards aquaculture or plant-based seafood alternatives.
- Regulatory changes within the European Union affecting fishing quotas and practices.
