In 2023, the production value of marine crabs for human consumption in France's capture fisheries was at 1.75 thousand euros per metric ton. From 2024 to 2028, it is forecasted to decline steadily each year, with a decrease from 1.6 thousand euros in 2024 to 1.03 thousand euros in 2028. The year-on-year percentage change highlights a yearly decrease in value, with significant reductions of 9.4% in 2025 and 10.7% in 2026. The Compound Annual Growth Rate (CAGR) over this five-year period suggests an average annual decrease of approximately 8.2%.
Future trends to watch for include potential impacts from climate change on marine ecosystems, shifts in consumer demand, and regulatory changes that could affect capture fisheries. Additionally, technological advancements in sustainable fishing practices and market diversification could influence future production values.
