According to Future Market Insights (FMI), the global animal feed industry is set to be valued at USD 530.0 billion in 2023. It is anticipated to reach USD 929.0 billion by 2033. Over the next ten years, global animal feed demand is likely to increase at a CAGR of 7.3%.
The growing global population has driven up the demand for animal protein. As more people join the middle class and shift towards meat and dairy-rich diets, the need for livestock and poultry production has surged. This increased demand requires a substantial rise in animal feed.
The growing demand for animal feed is partly driven by economic growth in emerging markets. In countries like China, India, and Brazil, industrialization and urbanization have led to more diverse diets, with increased meat consumption. This shift has significantly raised the need for animal feed.
The expansion of aquaculture has greatly influenced the growth in animal feed demand. To meet the increasing global appetite for seafood, fish farming has become exceptionally popular.
To ensure optimal fish growth, feed must be nutrient-dense. As aquaculture evolves, the need for specialized feeds tailored to different species is increasing. Advances in animal nutrition have highlighted the benefits of customized diets for livestock and poultry. Recognizing the importance of balanced, high-quality feed for improving animal health, growth rates, and product quality, farmers and producers are increasingly seeking specialty feed products. This growing awareness is leading to more complex feed formulations and rising demand for these tailored solutions.
The global demand for animal feed is increasing, partly driven by the expanding pet food sector. As more people adopt pets and treat them as cherished family members, the demand for premium pet food has surged.
A substantial market has emerged for specialty pet food formulations tailored to the specific dietary needs of various animals, including dogs, cats, and exotic pets. The sector’s strong reliance on these specialized components has led to increased demand for ingredients used in animal feed.
Advancements in livestock genetics and breeding have led to the development of high-performance animal breeds with specialized dietary needs. These genetically enhanced animals require tailored nutrition to support their growth, productivity, and overall health. Consequently, there is a rising demand for customized and specialized animal feed formulations, particularly in the poultry and dairy sectors, where optimizing production and performance is crucial.
