In 2023, whole fresh turbot production in capture fisheries in France stood at approximately 84.63 metric tons. Forecasts for subsequent years indicate a decreasing trend, with a decline in production falling to 63.56 metric tons by 2028. This represents a year-on-year decrease of approximately 8.4% in 2025, 7.4% in 2026, 6.4% in 2027, and 5.4% in 2028, resulting in a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of -6.7% over this five-year forecasting period.

Future trends to watch for include:

Potential shifts in regulatory or environmental policies that could impact fishing practices.
Changes in consumer demand and market price affecting production incentives.
Advancements in sustainable fishing technologies that may stabilize or reverse production declines.
