사료용 단백질 시장 - 예측(2026-2031년)

The feed protein market is projected to expand at a 5.5% CAGR, attaining USD 468.473 billion in 2031 from USD 339.760 billion in 2025.

The feed protein market is a critical and dynamic segment of the global animal nutrition industry, characterized by its direct impact on production efficiency and cost. As the most expensive component of feed, accounting for a significant portion of production expenditures, protein is a primary focus for feed formulators. The core objective within the industry is to source ingredients that offer high protein content with a favorable amino acid balance at a competitive cost, driving continuous research and development into alternative and advanced protein sources.

A confluence of macroeconomic and sector-specific trends is fueling market growth. Evolving economic conditions and improving agricultural financial landscapes in developing nations are creating a more robust environment for market expansion. This is underpinned by a sustained increase in global demand for animal products, particularly packaged and processed meat and dairy. This demand places intense pressure on livestock producers to enhance both the quality and productivity of their herds, making optimized nutrition a strategic imperative.

The functional role of protein varies significantly across livestock segments, each contributing to market drivers. In poultry nutrition, protein is an essential ingredient that supports development, immunity, egg production, and overall biological efficiency. The growth of the poultry meat industry directly translates into increased demand for high-quality protein sources. Within the dairy sector, protein feed supplements are valued for improving meal digestibility and feed conversion ratios, offering a means to lower overall feed costs while efficiently replenishing essential nutrients to boost milk yield. Similarly, in aquaculture, advanced protein sources are integral to formulating diets that optimize fish health and growth performance.

The market is characterized by a diverse sourcing landscape. Plant-based proteins, particularly soybean meal, continue to dominate the supply base due to their widespread availability and established nutritional profile. Concurrently, there is a noted expansion in the usage of animal-based proteins, such as meat meals. The industry is also advancing through the innovation of new protein sources, including hydrolyzed proteins, which not only support optimal zootechnical performance but also offer functional benefits like antimicrobial and antioxidant properties. This innovation is strategically aimed at reducing costs while enhancing feed efficacy.

Geographically, the market exhibits distinct regional dynamics. North America maintains a significant market share, supported by a large processed meat sector and advanced feed processing technologies. Demand in this region is driven by the need for high-performance compound feeds that enhance animal efficiency.

However, the Asia-Pacific region is predicted to experience substantial growth, emerging as the most dynamic market. This expansion is fueled by a combination of factors: a rapidly increasing population driving demand for meat products, rising disposable incomes, and a strategic focus on enhancing farm animal yield through improved nutrition. The recognition of agriculture and food production as essential sectors in the region underscores the importance of providing high-quality feed to livestock, creating a fertile ground for the adoption of feed proteins. Ongoing studies and technological innovation in animal husbandry practices further contribute to the region's strong growth prospects.
