In 2023, the production of Fresh Mediterranean Starry Ray for human consumption in France stood at an estimated metric tonnage that serves as a baseline for subsequent forecasts. From 2024 onward, forecasts indicate a steady increase: 31.6 metric tons in 2024, progressively rising to 40.2 metric tons by 2028. The year-on-year growth ranges from approximately 6% to 7% annually, with a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) over the five-year period suggesting an average annual increase of about 6.7%.
Future trends to watch for include potential impacts of environmental policies on capture fisheries, shifts in consumer preferences towards sustainability, and market dynamics affecting demand and pricing. Close monitoring of these factors is crucial for stakeholders in the Mediterranean Starry Ray fisheries sector.
