In 2024, French freshwater carp production is projected at 5.8 metric tons, marking the start of a gradual decline: 5.6 in 2025, 5.4 in 2026, 5.2 in 2027, and 5.1 in 2028. With 2023 figures absent, trends focus on 2024 onwards. The year-on-year percentage decreases average -2.6%, reflecting a consistent downward trend and estimating continued annual reduction throughout the forecast.
Future trends to watch include potential impacts of climate change on freshwater ecosystems, advancements in sustainable fishing practices, and shifts in regulatory frameworks which could alter production trajectories in the long run. Monitoring technological innovations in aquaculture could present growth opportunities that might counteract declines in capture fisheries.
