The global animal feed market is segmented by type (compound feed, feed concentrates, and roughages), source (plant-based (cereal and grains, oilseed, and other plant-based sources), animal-based, fodder & DDGS, and novel sources), form (dry feed (pellets, crumbles, mash, others), wet feed), animal type (poultry (starter feed, grower feed, layer feed, finisher feed, others), ruminants (beef cattle (calf feed, backgrounding feed, feedlot feed), dairy cattle (calf feed, heifer feed, lactating feed, dry cattle feed), and others), swine (starter feed, grower feed, finisher feed), aquaculture, and others), and geography. The study also evaluates industry competitors and analyzes the country-level markets.

Based on type, the global animal feed market is segmented into compound feed, feed concentrates, and roughages. In 2023, the compound feed segment is expected to account for the largest share of the global animal feed market. The large share of the compound feed segment is attributed to their comparatively higher price and rising demand for these formulated feed among commercial livestock farmers and pet owners to ensure appropriate nutrition for animals for faster and healthy growth because of the rising prevalence of animal diseases, the growing rate of livestock industrialization, and the high demand for quality meat and dairy products.

Based on source, the global animal feed market is segmented into plant-based, animal-based, fodder & DDGS, and novel sources. In 2023, the plant-based segment is expected to account for the largest share of the global animal feed market. The large market share of this segment is attributed to the abundant availability of raw materials, widespread acceptance of plant-based animal feed, and low cost of plant-based feed sources. However, the novel sources segment is projected to register the highest CAGR in the global animal feed market during the forecast period of 2023–2030. The growth of this segment is attributed to the high nutritional profiles of novel sources, government approvals to integrate these innovative sources into feed products, and the need to explore new protein sources to meet the rising global demand for animal protein due to the rapid population growth.

Based on form, the global animal feed market is segmented into dry feed and wet feed. In 2023, the dry feed segment is expected to account for the larger share of the global animal feed market. The large share of this segment is attributed to convenience for handling, storage & transport, and longer shelf life, less cost, nutrient stability, controlled feeding, higher nutritional density, and bulk purchase.

Based on animal type, the global animal feed market is segmented into poultry, ruminants, swine, aquaculture animals, and other types. In 2023, the poultry segment is expected to account for the largest share of the global animal feed market. However, the aquaculture segment is projected to register the highest CAGR during the forecast period of 2023–2030. The rapid growth of this segment is mainly attributed to increasing aquaculture production, demand for a nutritious diet for the proper growth and development of aquaculture species, and rising consumption of fish and fish-based products.

An in-depth geographic analysis of the industry provides detailed qualitative and quantitative insights into the five major regions (North America, Europe, Asia-Pacific, Latin America, and the Middle East & Africa) and the coverage of major countries in each region. Asia-Pacific is slated to register the highest CAGR during the forecast period, mainly due to growing support by the government to strengthen the agricultural sector, economic expansion, increasing focus on animal productivity, and modernization of the livestock & meat sectors.
