The production of fresh monkfish in capture fisheries in France is forecasted to increase steadily from 2024 to 2028, starting at 11.98 thousand metric tons in 2024 and reaching 12.9 thousand metric tons in 2028. In 2023, this volume was slightly lower, indicating consistent positive growth in the coming years.
Year-on-year, the production shows modest growth, averaging around a 1.8% increase annually over the five-year period. This steady upward trend reflects a stable demand and possibly improved fishing practices or regulations favoring sustainable yields.
Future trends to watch for include the impact of climate change on fisheries, regulatory changes within the EU, and shifts in consumer demand that could affect production volumes. Monitoring these factors will be crucial for ensuring continued growth in fresh monkfish production.
