The forecast data for fresh tub gurnard production in capture fisheries in France shows a steady decline from 2024 to 2028. In 2023, actual production stood at approximately 982 metric tons. Subsequently, the production is anticipated to reduce by an average of around 5% year-on-year. Specifically, between 2026 and 2028, production is expected to decrease from around 839.74 to 746.71 metric tons, reflecting sustained downward pressure over the period. The compounded annual growth rate (CAGR) over five years demonstrates a consistent decline, averaging approximately 5% annually.
Future trends to watch for include:
- Potential impacts of climate change on marine life, affecting gurnard populations.
- Shifts in consumer demand towards sustainable seafood options.
- Innovations in fishing technology reducing by-catch and improving efficiencies.
- Regulatory changes that could either restrict or stimulate gurnard fishing practices.
