The forecast predicts a continuous decline in the production value of fresh sandeels and sandlances in France from 2024 to 2028. Starting at 88.22 thousand euros in 2024, the value drops to 24.6 thousand euros by 2028. This reflects a year-on-year average decrease of approximately 21.1%, indicating a significant reduction in production activities. The downward trend suggests considerable challenges in the fishery sector for these species, likely due to environmental regulations, declining populations, or changing market demands.
Future trends to watch include changes in regulatory policies, potential shifts in market demand, and environmental factors affecting sandeel populations. Adaptations in fishing technology or alternative markets might also impact future forecasts. Monitoring these factors could provide insights into reversing the downward trend or opportunities in alternative sectors.
