The production of fresh abalones, winkles, and conchs in France's capture fisheries is forecasted to decline consistently from 2024 to 2028. Starting at 9.11 thousand metric tons in 2024, it is expected to fall to 5.48 thousand metric tons by 2028, highlighting a downward trend. In 2023, the production stood at 10.03 thousand metric tons, indicating a sharp annual decline. The year-on-year variation suggests a steady decrease averaging around 8% annually, with a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) over the five-year forecast period reflecting a consistent downturn.
Future trends to watch include potential changes in environmental policies, shifts in consumer preferences toward sustainable seafood, and the impact of climate change on marine ecosystems, all of which could influence production levels of these species markedly.
