As of 2023, the valuation of whole fresh thornback ray production in capture fisheries for human consumption in France stood at an unreported value, establishing 2024 forecasts at 2.19 thousand euros per metric ton. The forecast from 2024 to 2028 anticipates a slight annual decrease, moving from 2.19 to 2.12 thousand euros per metric ton, with an average decline (CAGR) of approximately 0.8% per year over these five years.
Year-on-year percentage variations highlight minor decreases by around 0.9% from 2024 to 2025, 1% from 2025 to 2026, and a steady reduction of 0.5% from 2026 to 2027, accelerating slightly to 0.9% by 2028. This consistent decline suggests potential constraints in supply or shifts in market dynamics.
