As of 2023, the production of fresh Shortfin Mako in capture fisheries in France stood at 6.3 metric tons. The forecast for the upcoming years predicts a gradual decline in production with figures dropping from 6.2 metric tons in 2024 to 5.7 metric tons by 2028. This reflects an annual average decrease of approximately 2.0% over the five-year period from 2024 to 2028.
The year-on-year variations indicate a consistent downtrend, which continues the negative trajectory observed in recent years, suggesting challenges in the sector that may stem from regulatory, environmental, or market dynamics.
- Observe regulatory changes impacting shark fisheries.
- Monitor environmental conservation efforts and their effects on mako populations.
- Keep an eye on market demand and sustainability trends that could further affect production.
