The production of whole fresh aquatic plants in France's capture fisheries is projected to grow steadily from 2024 through 2028. Starting at 70.4 thousand metric tons in 2024, production is expected to increase to 90.52 thousand metric tons by 2028.

Future trends to watch for include:

Advancements in sustainable fishing practices which could drive increased adoption and expansion.
Potential impacts of climate change and regulatory measures on aquatic plant ecosystems.
Increasing consumer demand for plant-based products and their implications on market dynamics.
