In 2023, the whole fresh Atlantic chub mackerel production for human consumption in France was valued just above the highest forecast for 2024 at 132.02 thousand euros. Looking at the forecasted data from 2024 to 2028, there is a noticeable declining trend in value, with an average annual decrease. Each year sees a year-on-year reduction, reflecting decreasing profitability, possibly due to overfishing, ecological concerns, or market shifts.
Future trends to monitor include:
- Regulatory changes impacting capture fisheries.
- Consumer demand shifts towards sustainable or alternative seafood.
- Potential fish stock recovery affecting supply chain dynamics.
- Technological advancements in fishery management and sustainable practices.
