In 2023, France's fresh spotted ray production value in capture fisheries for human consumption was approximately in line with the forecasted value of 2.49 thousand euros per metric ton for 2024. The forecast indicates a slight decline in value: 0.8% decrease per year from 2024 to 2025, followed by subsequent annual reductions, reaching 2.43 thousand euros by 2028. Over the five-year period from 2024 to 2028, a Compound Annual Growth Rate (CAGR) of approximately -0.5% is projected, reflecting minor annual declines.
Future trends to watch for:
- Potential impacts of environmental regulations on fishing practices.
- Shifts in consumer preferences in seafood consumption.
- Technological advancements in capture techniques affecting efficiency and costs.
