The forecasted production of sandeels and sandlances in France's capture fisheries shows a steady upward trend from 2024 to 2028, starting at 71.71 metric tons in 2024 and reaching 72.62 metric tons by 2028. Previously, 2023's actual production was marginally lower. Year-on-year growth is predictably small, approximately a consistent 0.3% to 0.4% increase each year. Over the five-year period, the compound annual growth rate (CAGR) is modest, reflecting gradual growth in production.
Future trends to watch for include:
- Potential impacts of regulatory changes in EU fisheries policies.
- Environmental factors influencing sandeel populations and fishing grounds.
- Market demand for sandeels impacting production adjustments.
