According to Stratistics MRC, the Global Ancient Grains Market is accounted for $4.03 billion in 2024 and is expected to reach $26.39 billion by 2030 growing at a CAGR of 36.8% during the forecast period. Ancient grains refer to a category of grains that have remained largely unchanged over centuries, tracing their origins back to ancient civilizations. Unlike modern grains that have undergone extensive breeding and modification, ancient grains retain their original genetic composition and often boast higher levels of vitamins, minerals, and antioxidants. Additionally, they are frequently praised for their unique flavors, textures, and diverse culinary applications, appealing to both health-conscious consumers and chefs seeking innovative ingredients.
Growing interest in diversifying food sources
Consumers are increasingly drawn to ancient grains due to their perceived health benefits, unique flavors, and environmental sustainability. These grains, such as quinoa, amaranth, and teff, are rich in nutrients, gluten-free, and often have a lower environmental impact compared to conventional grains. Additionally, their cultivation can promote biodiversity and support small-scale farmers. As people seek out alternatives to traditional staples like wheat and rice, the demand for ancient grains is on the rise.
High cost of labor
The high cost of labor poses a significant challenge to the Ancient Grains Market. Ancient grains often require more intensive cultivation and harvesting methods compared to conventional crops, demanding skilled labor. The niche market for ancient grains means that economies of scale are harder to achieve, further driving up labor costs per unit of production. This, coupled with the fact that ancient grains are often grown in specific regions with higher labor costs, exacerbates the issue. As a result, producers face pressure to increase prices, making ancient grains less competitive against cheaper alternatives.
Expansion of distribution channels
With increased availability in supermarkets, health food stores, and online platforms, ancient grains have gained broader consumer accessibility. This expansion has facilitated convenience for consumers seeking healthier alternatives to conventional grains, catering to diverse dietary preferences including gluten-free, vegan, and organic. The integration of ancient grains into mainstream food products such as cereals, snacks, and baked goods has widened their consumer base, appealing to those seeking both nutrition and flavor. Additionally, the proliferation of distribution channels has enabled greater market penetration globally, fostering awareness and appreciation for these nutritious and sustainable grains.
Unavailability of irrigation facilities
The unavailability of irrigation facilities poses a significant obstacle to the growth of the ancient grains market. Ancient grains, revered for their nutritional value and resilience, often thrive in specific environmental conditions. However, many regions where these grains traditionally grow lack adequate irrigation infrastructure. As a result, farmers face challenges in maintaining consistent yields and quality. Erratic rainfall patterns further exacerbate this issue, leading to crop failures and reduced production. Without reliable access to water for irrigation, farmers are unable to maximize their yields or expand cultivation efforts. This limitation not only hampers the supply of ancient grains but also affects market stability and accessibility for consumers.
The Covid-19 pandemic had a significant impact on the ancient grains market. Disruptions in supply chains and logistical challenges impeded the production and distribution of ancient grains, leading to fluctuating availability and increased prices. The closure of restaurants and food service industries reduced demand from these sectors, further affecting market dynamics. However, the economic downturn caused by the pandemic influenced consumer purchasing behaviors, with some opting for more affordable staple foods over specialty grains.
The Gluten Free Ancient Grains segment is expected to be the largest during the forecast period
Gluten Free Ancient Grains segment is expected to be the largest during the forecast period. Ancient grains, such as quinoa, amaranth, teff, and millet, have gained popularity due to their nutritional value and versatility in culinary applications. The rise in gluten sensitivity and celiac disease diagnoses has propelled the demand for gluten-free alternatives, driving the innovation and development of gluten-free ancient grain products. This segment caters to a growing consumer base seeking gluten-free options without compromising on the health benefits and taste associated with ancient grains. Moreover, gluten-free ancient grain products appeal not only to individuals with gluten intolerance but also to health-conscious consumers looking to diversify their diet with nutrient-rich alternatives.
The Cereals segment is expected to have the highest CAGR during the forecast period
Cereals segment is expected to have the highest CAGR during the forecast period by incorporating ancient grains into its products, thereby diversifying consumer choices and promoting healthier eating habits. The incorporation of these grains into cereals offers a unique flavor profile and texture, catering to the evolving preferences of modern consumers. Moreover, the Cereals segment's widespread distribution channels and marketing strategies expose ancient grains to a broader audience, fostering awareness and appreciation for their nutritional benefits.
Asia Pacific region commanded the largest share of the market over the projection period. As consumer awareness of health and wellness grows, there is a rising demand for nutritious and natural food options across the region. Ancient grains, known for their high nutritional value and heritage, are gaining popularity as a healthier alternative to refined grains. Food companies are capitalizing on this regional trend by promoting ancient grains through various marketing channels such as advertising, social media campaigns, and product endorsements by influencers. Additionally, partnerships with retailers and foodservice providers are expanding the availability of ancient grain products across the region.
Asia Pacific region is estimated to witness substantial growth during the extrapolated period. With an increasing focus on food safety and nutrition, governments have implemented policies supporting the cultivation and consumption of ancient grains like quinoa, amaranth, and millet throughout the region. These regulations often include subsidies for farmers, research funding for crop improvement, and initiatives to raise consumer awareness about the nutritional benefits of ancient grains in the region. Additionally, labeling requirements and quality standards ensure transparency and trust in the regional market, further stimulating demand.
Key players in the market
Some of the key players in Ancient Grains market include General Mills, Glanbia plc, Archer Daniels Midland Company, Grupo Bimbo, Bunge Limited, Intersnack, Calbee, Kellogg, Cargill Inc, KP Snacks, Nestle, Pepsico, Premier Foods and Yamazaki Baking.
In September 2023, ADM and Syngenta Group Sign MoU to Support Low-Carbon Next-Generation Oilseeds and Improved Varieties to Meet Growing Demand for Biofuels and Other Products. The MoU envisions a collaboration in which ADM and Syngenta would leverage their existing capabilities to accelerate the research, processing, and commercialization of new, low carbon-intensity oilseeds, such as Camelina, that are typically grown in the fallow period of a crop rotation.
In August 2022, LG Chem, a leading global diversified chemical company, and ADM, a global leader in nutrition and biosolutions, held a signing ceremony launching two joint ventures for U.S. production of lactic acid and polylactic acid to meet growing demand for a wide variety of plant-based products, including bioplastics.
