In 2023, the total pouting bib production in capture fisheries in France stood at 2.56 thousand metric tons. From 2024 onwards, the forecast shows a consistent decline, with production decreasing each year: 2.45 in 2024, 2.33 in 2025, 2.21 in 2026, 2.1 in 2027, and 1.99 in 2028. Year-on-year variations indicate an average annual decline, with a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of approximately -4.85% over the five-year forecast period.
Future trends to watch for include potential impacts of climate change on fish populations, regulatory changes in capture fisheries, and shifts in consumer preferences or demand for alternative seafood products, which could further influence production volumes.
