Growing Demand for Poultry Products

Consumers are changing their food preferences continuously to lead a healthy lifestyle. People always prioritize animal-based food products for their high protein content. Poultry eggs and meat are greater sources of healthy proteins and other nutrients like vitamins, minerals and essential fatty acids. It is affordable compared to other conventional meat.

According to USDA, an almost 86% increase in global poultry meat consumption was observed in the span of 20 years from 2001 to 2021. The significant rise in poultry meat consumption has a positive impact on the market size. USDA also reported that poultry imports globally are expected to reach 17.5 million tons by 2031, with Brazil and Sub-Saharan Africa as the top exporters and importers.

Advancements in Poultry Farming

Implementing modern innovation in this field can improve efficiency and enhance sustainability, boosting market growth.

Increasing Vegan Population

COVID-19 Impact Analysis

The outbreak of the COVID-19 pandemic moderately impacted the global poultry market. The pandemic conditions made it difficult for the proper management of poultry farming.
