The crustaceans production in capture fisheries for human consumption in France stood at 13.2 thousand metric tons in 2023. The forecast for 2024 through 2028 indicates a steady decline from 13.01 to 12.19 thousand metric tons. The year-on-year drop from 2024 to 2028 averages around 1.65%, with an overall negative compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of approximately -1.6% over these five years.
Future trends to watch for include:
- Impact of climate change on marine ecosystems, potentially further affecting crustacean populations.
- Shifts in policy and regulations aimed at sustainable fishing practices that could influence production levels.
- Technological advancements in aquaculture possibly offsetting capture fisheries’ decline.
