Middle East and Africa Animal Nutrition Market

Global Industry Trends, Share, Scope, Growth & Forecast (2025–2035)

Introduction

The Middle East & Africa (MEA) animal nutrition market covers feed additives, premixes, amino acids, vitamins, minerals, enzymes, probiotics, and functional ingredients designed to support livestock productivity, reproductive health, and disease resistance. Growing demand for safe, high-quality meat, milk, and eggs — combined with concerns over feed cost efficiency and sustainability — is driving adoption of precision nutrition and scientifically formulated feed solutions across poultry, ruminant, aquaculture, and pet sectors.

Animal nutrition market is expected to gain market growth in the forecast period of 2021 to 2028. Data Bridge Market Research analyses that the market is growing with a CAGR of 6.5% in the forecast period of 2021 to 2028 and is expected to reach USD 2,130.01 million by 2028.

Grow in awareness regarding animal health, increase in demand for meat and its by-products, rising nutritional requirements of existing livestock, the rise in disposable income is increasing the consumption of animal-based products acts as driver for the Animal Nutrition market growth.

Animal nutrients refer to animals' dietary needs, including minerals, enzymes, eubiotics, macronutrients, amino acids, and vitamins essential in efficient meat and milk production, proper bone structures, and reproduction. The study of the composition and characteristics of the material consumed by the animal and how the feed material is metabolized (converted, utilized, and excreted) in the digestive tract and body cells of monogastric animals (pigs, broilers, layers), ruminants (sheep, cattle, goats), and lower digestive tract fermenters, is known as animal nutrition (horses, ostriches). Therefore, this information is incorporated into an economically feasible and practical system of animal nutrition to ensure that animals achieve their maximum genetic production potential. It mainly focuses on the dietary nutrient needs of animals, primarily those in agriculture and food production, and zoos, aquariums, and wildlife management.

Market Overview

MEA markets are modernizing livestock production as rising disposable incomes and rapid urbanization create demand for protein-rich diets. Governments support local feed milling capacity, disease-prevention programs, and sustainable animal production. Large integrators and feed compounders are investing in advanced formulations to improve feed conversion, optimize nutrient utilization, and reduce environmental impact.

Market Dynamics

Drivers

• Rising meat, dairy, and egg consumption as populations expand and incomes grow.

• Industrialization of poultry and ruminant farming, emphasizing productivity and biosecurity.

• Feed cost pressure encouraging optimized formulations and alternative raw materials.

• Growing awareness of gut health, immunity, and precision feeding.

• Pet ownership growth in GCC countries and South Africa, boosting demand for companion animal supplements.

Restraints

• High volatility in raw material prices (soymeal, corn, fishmeal).

• Logistics and cold-chain gaps in some regions affecting feed additive distribution.

• Limited technical expertise among smallholder farmers restraining adoption of advanced products.

Opportunities

• Expansion of aquaculture and specialty species nutrition (camel, horse, game birds).

• Local production of premixes and additives reducing import reliance.

• Digital monitoring tools enabling precision feeding and waste reduction.

• Halal-certified feed supplements for growing regional compliance.

Challenges

• Ensuring supply security during geopolitical disruptions or port bottlenecks.

• Compliance with tightening safety standards (antibiotic-free, mycotoxin control).

• Recruiting and retaining skilled animal nutritionists and feed technologists.
