The production of gutted fresh European seabass in French capture fisheries is projected to grow steadily from 2024 to 2028. In 2023, the recorded production was approximately 6.68 metric tons. Year-on-year projections indicate consistent growth: from 2024 to 2025, a 5.26% increase; from 2025 to 2026, a 5.14% increase; from 2026 to 2027, a 4.75% increase; and from 2027 to 2028, a 4.53% increase. The compound annual growth rate (CAGR) for 2024-2028 is approximately 4.97%.
Future trends to monitor include potential impacts of climate change, fishing regulations, and consumer demand shifts toward sustainable seafood. France's focus on sustainable fishing practices might further influence seabass production volumes.
