The forecast for whole fresh great Mediterranean scallop production in France from capture fisheries shows a decrease from 1.2 metric tons in 2024 to 1.1 metric tons from 2025 to 2028. Comparing this to the previous year (2023), where the value stood at 1.3 metric tons, there is a declining trend. The year-on-year decrease from 2023 to 2024 is 7.7%, followed by a stabilization from 2025 onwards. The Compound Annual Growth Rate (CAGR) over the five-year period starting in 2024 is anticipated to reflect a slight negative trend due to the initial drop.
Future trends to watch for include potential environmental impacts and regulatory changes affecting fishing practices, which may further influence production levels. Additionally, shifts in consumer preferences towards sustainable and locally sourced seafood might impact demand and production strategies.
