In 2023, France's production of gutted fresh aquatic animals in capture fisheries was 42.70 thousand metric tons. From 2024, a decline is evident: the production is forecasted at 40.66 thousand metric tons, dropping successively each year to 32.98 thousand metric tons by 2028. This indicates a negative year-on-year growth, with a noticeable cumulative annual growth rate reflecting decreasing production over the forecasted period.

Key trends to watch for include:

Technological innovations and sustainable practices could alter forecast trends.
Changes in domestic and EU fisheries policies may influence future capture volumes.
Economic factors affecting demand for aquatic products could also impact production levels.
