The forecast for gutted fresh freshwater and diadromous fish production in capture fisheries for human consumption in France reveals a consistent decline in value from 2024 to 2028. In 2023, the value stood stable at the same level as 2024, indicating initial stagnation. From 2024, there is a gradual decrease each year: 4.9% in 2025, 4.7% in 2026, 5.4% in 2027, and a subsequent 5.2% decline in 2028, resulting in an average annual decline, or CAGR, of approximately 5.05% over these five years.

Looking towards future trends, attention should be given to:

The impact of environmental policies on freshwater fish availability.
Technological advancements in aquaculture and their potential to offset declines.
Consumer preference shifts towards sustainably sourced seafood.
Economic factors affecting production costs and pricing.
