The production of fresh Atlantic horse mackerel in France is forecasted to decline from 2024 to 2028. Starting at 2.32 thousand metric tons in 2024, it decreases each year, reaching 2.12 thousand metric tons by 2028. When assessing the year-on-year variation, the production drops by approximately 2.2% annually. This decline underscores a consistent downtrend, resulting in a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of about -2.4% over the five-year forecast period. In 2023, although exact figures are not provided, it's implied that production levels were either stable or slightly higher than in 2024.
Future trends to watch for include:
- The impact of regulatory changes and fisheries management policies on production.
- Efforts towards sustainable fishing practices that could influence catch levels.
- Market demand fluctuations in France and neighboring regions.
- Environmental factors, such as climate change, affecting fish populations.
