The global swine feed market size is expected to reach USD 135.7 billion by 2025, accelerating at a CAGR of 3.5% over the forecast period, according to a new report by Grand View Research, Inc. Focus on improving the overall quality of pork has been a critical factor, which is triggering the demand for the product.
Increasing awareness among consumers concerning the quality of pork is compelling swine farmers to utilize additives that keep swine healthy as well as immune to diseases and disorders. Also, the use of enhanced additives is expected to reduce the occurrence of infections as well as illnesses in swine, thereby contributing to the increasing demand for the product worldwide.
Manufacturers in the market are constantly evaluating techniques to enhance growth performance as well as lower product costs. Physical forms, such as mash, crumbles, and pellets, play a crucial role in determining the quality and yield of pig meat. Rising urbanization and establishment of fast food restaurant chains are expected to augment the demand for pig meat.
The trend is becoming increasingly prevalent in the emerging economies of Asia Pacific including China, India, and Malaysia. Population growth is another key factor that is expected to drive meat consumption globally. These factors together are expected to augment the demand for animal proteins, which, in turn, is likely to propel the demand for the product and additives over the forecast period.
The U.S. and China emerged as the most prominent regions for the market in 2018. Market growth in these countries can be attributed to the abundant availability of raw materials along with increasing consumption of meat byproducts. Fluctuation in the prices of major raw materials, such as corn and soybean and swine feed additives, is projected to hamper the market growth over the forecast period.
