The forecast for gutted fresh longnosed skate production in capture fisheries for human consumption in France indicates a consistent decline from 2024 to 2028, with prices per metric ton decreasing each year. Compared to the previous year, each subsequent year from 2024 onwards projects a decrease in value. This downward trend anticipates a challenging period for the industry. In 2023, the value stood crucially higher, serving as a benchmark before the forecasted drops.
Future trends to watch for:
- Potential impacts of environmental policies on skate populations.
- Shifts in consumer preferences potentially affecting demand.
- Technological advancements in fishing practices influencing supply stability.
