The forecasted production of fresh carps and barbels in capture fisheries in France from 2024 to 2028 indicates a consistent decline from 5.8 to 5.1 metric tons. In 2023, production was reported at 6 metric tons, so 2024 represents a decrease of 3.3%. This downward trend continues with year-on-year reductions of 3.4% from 2024 to 2025, 3.6% from 2025 to 2026, 3.7% from 2026 to 2027, and a slight adjustment to 1.9% from 2027 to 2028. Over five years, the compounded annual growth rate (CAGR) shows a decrease of approximately 3.37% annually.
Trends to watch for in the future include possible mitigating actions in fisheries management and environmental policy amendments. The emphasis on sustainability and natural habitat preservation could alter production dynamics. Additionally, climate change impacts and variations in market demand for fresh water species must be monitored closely, as they could significantly affect production volume stakeholders and the related economic environment.
