The production of fresh ratfishes in capture fisheries for human consumption in France is projected to decline significantly from 2024 to 2028, starting from 4.99 thousand euros in 2024 and dropping to 0.01502 thousand euros by 2028. This reflects a trend of diminishing returns, with dramatic year-on-year percentage decreases expected, highlighting a critical downturn in the industry.
Key trends to watch for include market responses to declining production, such as increased imports or shifts in consumer preferences. Efforts to manage sustainable fishing practices and diversify sources could also impact future developments in the ratfish market in France.
