By MGN Editorial•March 3, 2026 at 01:19 PM

The global feed additives market is expected to grow at a CAGR of 6% over the next 5 years, driven by increasing demand for animal-based products.

According to a new report by MarketsandMarkets™, the global feed additives market is projected to reach $67.90 billion by 2031, up from $50.72 billion in 2026. This represents a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 6.0% during the forecast period. The growth of the feed additives market is primarily driven by the increasing demand for animal-based products such as meat, dairy, and eggs, as well as the rising awareness of animal health and nutrition. Feed additives play a crucial role in improving the quality, productivity, and efficiency of livestock and poultry farming. Key factors contributing to the market's expansion include the growing adoption of advanced feed formulations, the rising demand for high-quality animal protein, and the increasing focus on sustainable and eco-friendly animal farming practices. Additionally, the need to optimize feed conversion ratios and enhance animal growth performance is further fueling the demand for feed additives. The report segments the feed additives market by type, livestock, and region. By type, the market is divided into amino acids, vitamins, minerals, antibiotics, and other additives. The amino acids segment is expected to hold the largest market share due to their essential role in animal nutrition and growth. By livestock, the market is categorized into poultry, swine, ruminants, aquaculture, and others. Geographically, the Asia Pacific region is anticipated to witness the fastest growth, driven by the increasing population, rising disposable incomes, and the growing demand for animal-based products in countries like China and India. North America and Europe are also expected to maintain their strong positions in the global feed additives market. The report highlights the competitive landscape, with key players in the industry including Cargill, BASF, Archer Daniels Midland, and Evonik Industries. These companies are focusing on product innovation, strategic partnerships, and geographic expansion to strengthen their market presence and meet the evolving needs of the livestock and poultry industries.
