From 2024 onwards, forecasts indicate a stable production of 3.8 metric tons annually through 2028, suggesting no year-on-year variation during this period.

Future trends to watch for include:
- Potential regulatory changes affecting stingray capture quotas in France.
- Shifts in demand driven by the sustainable fishing movement and consumer preference for marine conservation.
- The impact of environmental factors, such as ocean climate variability, on stingray populations and capture efficiency.
