In 2023, Gutted Fresh Brill production for human consumption in France was 341 metric tons. The forecast from 2024 to 2028 shows a decreasing trend, with values dropping from 337.87 metric tons in 2024 to 324.91 metric tons by 2028. The year-on-year decline from 2023 to 2024 is approximately 0.9%, and a consistent decrease is observed each subsequent year. The five-year compound annual growth rate (CAGR) indicates an average annual reduction of around 1% in production volume.
Future trends to monitor include potential regulatory changes, environmental factors affecting brill populations, and shifts in consumer demand for seafood. Innovation in sustainable fishing practices could also play a critical role in stabilizing or reversing production declines.
