Animal Feed Insect Proteins Market size to surpass USD 870 million by 2030

Animal Feed Insect Proteins Market size is anticipated to cross USD 870 million in revenue by 2030, as per a new research report announced by Global Market Insights Inc.
 

The report identifies the low environmental impact and high nutrition content of insect proteins as the chief drivers of the animal feed insect proteins industry. For instance, cricket protein is bio-available, produces low emissions during the production process, and provides around 58-65% of dry matter-based protein. Similarly, according to the FAO (Food & Agriculture Organization), grasshoppers and locusts are good sources of unsaturated fats that lower the risk of heart diseases.
 

Benefits of mass production to increase mealworms industry share

With respect to insect type, the study classifies the animal feed insect proteins market into black soldier fly, caterpillars, crickets, mealworms, beetles, grasshopper, locusts, housefly, bees, wasps & ants, scale insects & true bugs, and others. The mealworms segment is expected to grow at a CAGR of more than 8% through the review time period. Mealworms are beneficial for mass production due to their small size, simpler handling, and lower feed requirements, which makes it easier for mealworms to produce more protein for animal feed. Additionally, mealworms aid manufacturers in reducing the cost of production, which is slated to fuel segmental progress in the coming years.
 

Growing processed food consumption to augment poultry application segment growth

The deployment of insect proteins in the poultry feed sector is set to remain high in the coming years. Animal feed insect proteins market from the poultry feed application segment was worth more than USD 220 million in 2021 and is poised to grow at a steady pace over the analysis timespan. Soaring demand for poultry meat in the food & beverage industry and surging uptake of packaged and processed meat are primed to push product adoption. The segment growth is further expected to be driven by significant development in food processing technologies.
