The forecast for Fresh Clams, Cockles, and Arkshells production in capture fisheries for human consumption in France indicates a subtle decline in value from 2024 to 2028, decreasing from 1.22 to 1.13 thousand euros per metric ton. In 2023, actual data showed the value at 1.25 thousand euros per metric ton. The year-on-year variation suggests a consistent downward trend with slight reductions each year. Over the last two years, we see a cumulative decline in value. The compound annual growth rate (CAGR) over the five-year forecast period is negative, highlighting a gradual decrease in average annual value.
Future trends to watch for include potential shifts in consumer demand that could alter these projections. Environmental factors, regulatory changes, and innovations in sustainable fishing practices could also impact production and market values significantly.
