In 2023, the total American plaice and long rough dab production in France's capture fisheries stood at 8 metric tons. The forecast from 2024 to 2028 suggests a stable production level of 8 metric tons for the initial two years, followed by a slight increase to 8.1 metric tons annually starting in 2026. Considering the stability in 2024 and 2025, the year-on-year growth from 2025 to 2026 is projected at 1.25%. Over the last two years, there is a positive trend observable with a 0.5% CAGR over the five-year forecast from 2024 to 2028.
Future trends to watch for include potential impacts of climate change on marine ecosystems, shifts in regulatory policies aimed at sustainable fishing, and market demand fluctuations which could influence production adjustments. Advancements in fishing technology and conservation efforts may also play a role in shaping future output levels.
