The North America aquafeed market was valued at USD 50.74 billion in 2024 and is anticipated to reach USD 55.71 billion in 2025 from USD 117.70 billion by 2033, growing at a CAGR of 9.80%, during the forecast period from 2025 to 2033.
Aquafeed delivers the required nutrition for aquatic animals. Aquafeed is generally in the form of granules or pellets. They provide nutrition in a steady and concentrated form, allowing the species to feed effectively and grow to their full capacity.
Aquatic animals are a vital source of high-quality protein and consist of several vitamins and minerals. Aquatic animals such as fish contain Omega-3 fatty acids, which are heart-friendly and can make enhancements in brain development and reproduction. They are an essential food source in several countries. Aquaculture has the capacity of creating large quantities for a comparatively lower cost when compared to ruminants, fowl, or swine.
The major growth drivers in the North American Aquafeed market are the increase in fish consumption, growing consumer awareness regarding the protein content in fish food, and limited availability of marine feed resources. However, environmental regulations on wild, marine, and inland fisheries have made it difficult to procure important raw materials like fish meal, fish oil for feeds. The regulatory structure of the animal feeds industry, which restricts the use of certain materials such as antibiotics, and increasing costs of raw materials are the chief factors hindering the growth of this regional market.
