The Animal Feed Antibiotics Market is expected to grow from US$4.342 billion in 2025 to US$5.311 billion in 2030, at a CAGR of 4.11%.
The term "antibiotics" describes a class of chemicals used to treat bacterial illnesses. Animal feed is supplemented with a minimal amount of antibiotics to support animal growth in order to boost milk or meat production in a shorter amount of time. Among the antibiotics used in livestock and poultry feed are oxytetracycline, bacitracin, procaine penicillin, and neomycin sulphate. One of the key factors propelling the growth of the feed antibiotics market is the rise in animal healthcare expenditures across the globe. The livestock sector uses feed antibiotics to increase zoonotic disease incidence, achieve a high feed efficiency rate, prevent and treat disease in herds of animals or in a single animal, and prevent and treat disease in humans. The market is also influenced by growing worries about farm animals like ruminants, swine, and poultry as well as the consumption of meat and other animal products. Additionally, the market for feed antibiotics derives growth from the increase in global population, rise in disposable income, rise in awareness, and increased demand for high-quality meat products. The use of antibiotics in livestock has been outlawed in many areas, which has hampered the market's expansion.
Despite growing global concern over human antimicrobial resistance brought on by the use of antibiotics in livestock, demand for animal-derived food products such as beef, lamb, milk and dairy products, poultry meat, and eggs has increased. Furthermore, it is anticipated that by 2030, the protein available from meat from sheep, beef, pork, and poultry will increase by 17.8%, 5.9%, 13.1%, and 15.7%, respectively. In addition, India has a sizable market base for dairy goods when it comes to derivative products. The National Dairy Development Board predicts that by 2030, India's demand for dairy products will amount to 266.5 million metric tonnes. Additionally, the FAO reported that India consumed more than 3.9 million tonnes of meat in 2020, and that number is expected to rise to 145.7 million tonnes by 2030. As a result, the market for feed antibiotics is also anticipated to see increased demand due to the growth in demand for food products generated from animals.
Over the course of the projected period, the Asia-Pacific region is anticipated to increase at a comparably significant rate. The demand for alternative feed additives and other items is rising as people become more aware of the harmful consequences of antibiotics.
