In France, the forecast for Greater Forkbeard production in capture fisheries indicates a consistent decline from 2024 to 2028. Starting in 2024 at 281.29 thousand Euros, a steady annual decrease is observed, culminating in a production value of 191.5 thousand Euros by 2028. Despite the absence of 2023 data for direct comparison, this trend highlights significant shrinkage in production values. Between 2024 and 2025, there's an approximate decline of 8.1%, and an average annual decrease of around 9.3% (CAGR) is projected over the five-year span.
Future trends to watch for include factors influencing fishing quotas and environmental or regulatory changes that might impact Greater Forkbeard populations and subsequent production levels. Additionally, shifts in consumer demand towards sustainable fishing practices could also be a key factor in shaping future production trends.
