The global feed fats and proteins market was valued at USD 8.04 billion in 2024 and is anticipated to reach USD 8.47 billion in 2025 from USD 12.80 billion by 2033, growing at a CAGR of 5.3% during the forecast from 2025 to 2033.
The Feed Fats & Proteins market is showing immense potential in the mentioned forecast period. The market continues to build momentum with the rise in demand for feed fats & protein as feed ingredients to minimize the loss in the production of high-quality meat, eggs, and other bioproducts. Thus, animal farmers, as well as breeders, have increased their production to meet the demands, and thus, various companies are investing in the Feed Fats & Proteins Market.
Feed Fats & Proteins help in optimizing the nutritional level of a feed, ensuring the procurement of maximum nutrition from a lesser amount of feed and hence making livestock production cost-effective. The increase in middle-class income and rapid urbanization has resulted in an increase in demand for fats & proteins in the feed market.
The significant growth in demand for animal meat has led to the market to show huge potential in recent years. Other major factors responsible for driving the market for feed fats & proteins include cost mitigation of livestock production, increasing demand for milk and milk products, and the industrialization of animal husbandry. The market also faces some restraints and challenges. Some of the important ones are an outbreak of the disease in livestock and environmental concerns regarding the use of feed fats and proteins. These factors have been holding back the market from showing its complete potential.
