The forecast for fresh Atlantic mackerel production in France from capture fisheries for human consumption indicates a declining trend from 2024 to 2028, decreasing from 6.86 thousand metric tons to 5.86 thousand metric tons. In 2023, the production stood at a higher value, marking a steady decline over the forecasted years. The year-on-year variations indicate consistent declines, with the largest decreases occurring between 2026 and 2028. The compound annual growth rate (CAGR) over this five-year period underscores a negative trend.
Future trends to watch for include potential shifts in consumer preferences, sustainable fishing practices impacting quotas, and environmental changes impacting fish stocks. Monitoring these factors will be crucial for adjusting future production forecasts.
