The global fishmeal market is estimated to be valued at US$ 8325.6 million in 2024. It will likely exhibit a CAGR of 5.2% during the forecast period, totaling US$ 13,874.3 million by the end of 2034.

Demand is anticipated to remain high for powdered fishmeal during the assessment period, owing to its benefits like better convenience and versatility. The target segment will likely account for a revenue share of 31.5% in 2024.

Multiple factors are expected to drive growth of the fishmeal market during the next ten years. These include:

  • Rapid population growth, along with rising demand for protein-rich diets
  • Booming aquaculture industry
  • Rising demand for high-quality, nutritious animal feeds and aquafeeds
  • Expanding usage of fishmeal in fertilizers
  • Increasing demand for premium aquaculture products like salmon and shrimp

Fishmeal has become an ideal source of protein and nutrients in aquaculture, poultry, and livestock diets. It is widely used in animal feeds due to its high nutritional content, thereby fueling its demand globally.

The expansion of aquaculture industry, particularly in Asian nations, is creating significant demand for high-quality protein sources, including fishmeal in aquafeeds. This will continue to provide impetus for the growth of the fishmeal market.

There is a rising demand for fish and seafood globally amid shifting consumer preferences for healthier food products. This, in turn, is expected to fuel sales of fishmeal as it is increasingly used as a primary ingredient in aquafeeds.

Fishmeal is also gaining wider popularity in fertilizer production due to presence of protein and other essential micronutrients. This will further boost the target market during the assessment period.

Escalating focus of farmers to provide high-nutritional feeds to their animals to cope with rising meat and dairy product demand is expected to fuel fishmeal sales. Thus, a steady CAGR has been predicted for the target market during the forecast period.
