The forecast for France's European Flat Oyster production in capture fisheries indicates a consistent decline from 2024 to 2028. Starting at 58.22 thousand Euros in 2024, the value is expected to decrease annually, reaching 29.11 thousand Euros by 2028. This represents a steady year-on-year decrease, with the compounded annual growth rate (CAGR) over this period reflecting a significant downturn in the industry. The sharpest declines are anticipated towards the end of the period.

Future trends to watch for include:

Environmental factors impacting oyster habitats and production.
Regulatory changes in capture fisheries management.
Market demand for sustainable and locally sourced seafood options.
Technological advancements in aquaculture and fisheries management contributing to efficiency improvements.
