In 2024, the forecast for total megrims production in capture fisheries for human consumption in France is anticipated to be 262.88 metric tons. As of 2023, production stood at 262.88 metric tons, with a sharp decrease predicted over the following years: 198.73 metric tons in 2025, 135.31 metric tons in 2026, 72.61 metric tons in 2027, and ultimately, 10.63 metric tons by 2028. The annual year-on-year decline represents a significant contraction in the industry, with a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) signifying an accelerated decrease in production volume.

Future trends to watch for include:

Analyzing the impact of regulatory changes or sustainable fishing initiatives on production levels.
Monitoring shifts in consumer demand which may further influence megrims production.
Adjustments in capture technology or practices that could alter production forecasts.
Economic factors influencing the capture fisheries sector in France.
