The forecast for alive fresh cockle production in capture fisheries in France shows a declining trend from 2024 to 2028. In 2024, production stands at 2.6 metric tons and is projected to decrease steadily to 1.2 metric tons by 2028. Compared to 2023, the year-on-year percentages reflect a diminishing production volume, with an annual compound average growth rate (CAGR) indicating a significant reduction over the next five years.
Future trends to watch for include potential impacts of environmental changes, regulatory constraints, and shifts in market demand, which could further influence cockle production. Additionally, sustainable fishing practices may become increasingly important for maintaining viable production levels in the long term.
