Strict feed regulation compliances may hamper industry development

The growing consumption of meat and meat products has led to the implementation of strict regulatory requirements to maintain animal and human safety, so affecting the animal feed protein ingredient market by means of rigorous regulatory compliances for producers and distributors. Governments are intervening, though, to aid by lowering compliance with these rules and implementing many favorable policies as they realize the value of the cattle and poultry sectors in maximizing farming revenues.

By product, the animal feed protein ingredients market from the oilseed meals segment is projected to reach USD 475 billion in revenue by 2032, impelled by rising customer preference for plant-based protein ingredients. Moreover, businesses are taking efforts to commercialize in the thriving market and attract new customers, which is set to accelerate the industry growth. For instance, in April 2022, food company Bunge collaborated with startup CoverCress Inc. ("CCI") to launch a novel renewable oilseed & animal feed crop that is ideal as a lower carbon intensity feedstock to address the mounting biofuel demand.

Under oilseed meals, the animal feed protein ingredients market from soymeal sub-segment is slated to depict over 9.5% CAGR through 2032, backed by the growing inclination towards genetically modified (GM) crops due to high yields and improved quality for livestock and fish feeds. In May 2022, the Indian government approved the import of around 0.55 million tons of GM soymeal. Furthermore, as soybean harvesting is concentrated in some regions, particularly those with uncertain weather conditions, key countries such as China are focusing on improving their domestic yields to reduce their reliance on imports.

According to the report, the Asia Pacific animal feed protein ingredients market is forecast to exceed a valuation of USD 228 billion by 2032, owing to the high regional population, rising incomes, and changing diets, which are propelling livestock production. To cite an instance, the Indian government is promoting the livestock and poultry sectors’ expansion through several favorable policies to raise farmers' earnings and increase off-farm employment. Similarly, in December 2022, the Asian Development Bank approved a $62.9 million package to assist Cambodia in strengthening its food security and promoting inclusive economic growth by boosting animal healthcare and value chains.

Regarding livestock, during the forecast period the animal feed protein ingredients market from the poultry category would show significant expansion at more than 9.5% CAGR. Particularly in developing and underdeveloped countries with limited production options, poultry has been the most consumed livestock product worldwide over the past two decades. While the United States, Brazil, EU, and Thailand have become well-known poultry exporters helping to meet the growing demand for protein-rich animal feed and driving market profitability, many nations have raised domestic chicken production to satisfy expanding demand.

Under livestock, by 2032 the broiler sub-segment is predicted to cross USD 165 billion. Since broiler production has a shorter production life cycle and requires less capital investment than other meat-producing animals, it is increasing profitability and helping commercial broiler farming to be more globally spread. The great demand for protein among broilers to enhance performance and output is probably going to help to expand the market greatly.

Impact of COVID-19 pandemic

The coronavirus epidemic seriously affected the animal feed protein ingredients sector, even with the very constant demand for animal feed. Tight lockdowns and transportation restrictions impacted the animal feed supply chain, less availability of animal husbandry-related services, and limited access to marketplaces and consumers. Rising COVID-19 numbers in China, a major supplier of organic soybeans, interfered with global organic feed production. But since the government instituted lockdowns, many farmers started panic-buying animal feed, which became profitable for the market throughout the epidemic.
