The forecasted production of fresh crustaceans in capture fisheries for human consumption in France indicates a gradual decline from 2024 to 2028. The production is expected to decrease from 12.37 thousand metric tons in 2024 to 10.99 thousand metric tons in 2028. Comparing the values year-on-year, we observe a slight decrease with an average annual decline of approximately 2.9% over these four years. In 2023, the recorded production was higher, setting a declining trend forecast for the next years leading up to 2028.
Looking ahead, key trends to monitor include the impacts of climate change on marine life, alterations in fishing regulations, consumer preferences shifting towards sustainable seafood, and technological advancements in aquaculture. These factors could significantly influence the trajectory of crustacean production in France. Keeping an eye on these elements will be crucial for understanding long-term shifts in the industry.
