The animal feed microbial protein market share from the bacteria segment will observe around 8% CAGR through 2032. The qualities of the microbial protein produced from the bacteria source are useful for various animal feed applications due to its effective price, efficiency, and safety. A 2022 study used a lower total bacteria population due to its low crude fiber content to achieve NFC levels in synchronization of rumen protein on microbial protein synthesis.
The poultry animal feed microbial protein market size will reach USD 185 million by 2032, propelled by its multiple benefits, such as improved growth and performance, enhanced gut health, reduced dependence on antibiotics, and better egg quality in poultry animals. In addition, increasing global consumption of poultry products will also complement product outlook. As per USDA’s projections, poultry imports will increase to 17.5 million metric tons while pork imports will reach 14.2 million tons by 2031.
Asia Pacific animal feed microbial protein market will grow at over 9% CAGR between 2023 and 2032, attributed to a significant increase in animal protein demand in the APAC region in line with the expanding population and changing dietary patterns. In March 2023, the South Korean regulatory body, MFDS, urged industry players and manufacturers to increase food safety management after increasing cases of contamination in the country.
