Dublin, Oct. 24, 2017 -- The "Feed Amino Acids - A Global Market Overview" report has been added to Research and Markets' offering.
Asia-Pacific Dominates Feed Amino Acids as Largest and Fastest Growing Market Worldwide with 2.8 Million Metric Tons, Translating to $5.5 Billion by 2022
Increasing pressure on the livestock sector to meet the growing demand for animal protein worldwide is driving growth of amino acids in compound animal feed production. The recent past has been witnessing a growing demand for animal protein globally for livestock, dairy and fish. This trend has been more apparent in the developing economies such as Asia-Pacific, as against the developed regions that have continued to be relatively stable.
Global volume consumption of Feed Grade Amino Acids is estimated at 4.5 million metric tons in 2017 and is projected to reach 6.2 million metric tons by 2022 at a CAGR of 6.8% between the two years. Poultry feed constitutes the largest consumer of feed amino acids globally with 2017 market share of 43.4%, volume consumption of which is slated to compound annually at 7.6% over 2017-2022 in reaching a projected 2.8 million metric tons by 2022 from an estimated 1.9 million metric tons in 2017.
