Feed micronutrients market seen reaching $2.69 billion by 2030

By AI, Created 11:39 AM UTC, May 20, 2026, /AGP/ – The Business Research Company says the global feed micronutrients market is set to grow from $1.99 billion in 2025 to $2.69 billion by 2030, driven by poultry demand, precision nutrition and advanced feed formulations. Asia-Pacific leads the market now, while North America is projected to grow fastest.

Why it matters: - Feed micronutrients support animal health, growth and productivity through essential vitamins and minerals added in small amounts to feed. - The market’s growth tracks rising demand for animal-derived foods, especially poultry, and wider use of more advanced feed formulations. - The projected expansion signals more investment in livestock, aquaculture and feed efficiency as producers try to improve output and animal performance.

What happened: - The Business Research Company released its Feed Micronutrients Global Market Report 2026, covering market size, trends and forecasts for 2026-2035. - The report values the market at $1.99 billion in 2025 and projects $2.12 billion in 2026. - The market is forecast to reach $2.69 billion by 2030, implying a 6.1% CAGR over the period. - The report says the market grew at a 7.0% CAGR in the recent period, from $1.99 billion in 2025 to $2.12 billion in 2026. - A free sample of the report is available online. - The full market report is also available online.

The details: - Feed micronutrients include vitamins and minerals used in animal feed to support immune function, bone development and energy metabolism. - The report cites precision nutrition techniques, advanced feed formulations and rising use of functional micronutrients as major growth drivers. - Sustainable and organic feed supplements are becoming more important in the market outlook. - Continued expansion in aquaculture and poultry is adding demand. - The report points to innovation in chelated and bioavailable micronutrients. - Synthetic vitamins paired with organic micronutrient blends are emerging as a product trend. - Other trends include greater use of trace and macro minerals, wider use of fat-soluble and water-soluble vitamins, and added carotenoids for coloration and antioxidant benefits.

Between the lines: - The market forecast reflects a broader shift toward feed products that aim to do more than meet minimum nutritional needs. - Poultry demand is especially important because that segment creates recurring demand for health and productivity-focused feed inputs. - The report frames feed micronutrients as part of a larger move toward precision animal husbandry rather than a standalone commodity category. - FAO data cited in the report show global poultry meat production reached 142 million metric tons in 2023, up 1% year over year. - FAO also reported global ovine meat output rose 1.7% to 17.0 million metric tons in 2023.

What’s next: - Asia-Pacific remained the largest regional market in 2025, supported by extensive livestock farming and aquaculture. - North America is expected to be the fastest-growing region as precision nutrition adoption rises. - The report covers Asia-Pacific, South East Asia, Western Europe, Eastern Europe, North America, South America, the Middle East and Africa. - Producers and suppliers will likely keep pushing toward more bioavailable and specialized micronutrient blends as demand grows.

The bottom line: - Feed micronutrients are moving from a niche input to a key part of animal nutrition strategy, with poultry demand and precision feeding driving the next leg of growth.
