The forecast for leerfish production in capture fisheries in France shows a significant year-on-year decline from 2024 to 2028. The year-on-year variation is -20% for each consecutive year beginning in 2024. The compound annual growth rate (CAGR) over the next five years is expected to be approximately -41.4%, indicating a sharp decrease in production. In 2023, the actual production stood at a baseline before this declining trend commenced.
Future trends to watch for include:
- Environmental impacts affecting marine biodiversity that could further reduce leerfish populations.
- Potential changes in fishing regulations or quotas by French authorities aiming to protect marine life.
- Advancements in sustainable fishing practices that might alter current forecasts.
