In 2023, the production of cherries in France was estimated at 26, projected in thousand metric tons. From 2024 onwards, forecasts indicate a steady decline in production. Specifically, the production is expected to decrease from 25.13 thousand metric tons in 2024 to 20.0 thousand metric tons by 2028. The year-on-year variation highlights a consistent drop in production, reflecting a challenging outlook for the cherry sector. Over the five-year span, the compound annual growth rate (CAGR) suggests an average annual decline in production.
Future trends to watch for include potential impacts of climate change on harvests, shifts in agricultural policy, innovation in cultivation practices, and fluctuating market demand, which may influence the trajectory of cherry production in France beyond 2028.
