The forecast for fresh megrims production in France's capture fisheries indicates a significant decline from 316.11 metric tons in 2024 to 150.33 metric tons by 2028. This represents a year-on-year decrease of 13.28% from 2024 to 2025, 15.2% from 2025 to 2026, 17.74% from 2026 to 2027, and a further 21.38% decline from 2027 to 2028.
