The Genetically Modified Feed Market Size is valued at USD 95.29 Billion in 2023 and is predicted to reach USD 157.71 Billion by the year 2031 at a 6.69 % CAGR during the forecast period for 2024-2031.
Key Industry Insights & Findings from the Report:

Genetically modified feed is those generated from creatures, animals or plants whose genetic structure has been altered so that they no longer appear natural. Genetically modified feed is employed in beverage, food processing, and other industries. Consumer taste preferences, as well as the need for nutritionally dense foods, are positively affecting demand for genetically modified crops. Furthermore, the variety of applications in the food and beverage industry will likely drive the growth of the genetically modified food market. Government restrictions on consuming genetically modified feed or crops are a significant impediment to market growth.
The increased demand for nutrient-dense meals and product innovation propels the genetically modified food business forward. In the coming years, the market's revenue will most likely be driven by research and development of genetically modified feed that will aid in offering a healthy lifestyle. The modification is intended to improve nutritional value and food taste and to reduce allergic reactions to specific food products. These qualities have propelled the market forward over the years and are expected to continue beyond the projection period. Furthermore, severe government limits on pesticides or hazardous, poisonous substances in farm products are expected to propel the market.
The genetically modified feed market is segmented on the crop, route of administration and end-use. Based on crop, the market is segmented into crops {corn, soybean, canola, cottonseed, alfalfa}, fruits & vegetables {papaya, potatoes, eggplant}). Based on form genetically modified feed market is segmented into pellets, crumble, mash, and meal/cake. Based on the feed type, the genetically modified feed market is segmented into roughages and concentrates. Based on application, the market is segmented into poultry {layer, broiler, turkey}, swine {grower, starter, sow}, cattle {calf, dairy}, aquaculture {carp, trout, salmon, shrimp}, pet foods {dogs, cats, birds, fish}, equine).
The market's leading segment is the crop. Farmers' production and adoption of genetically modified crops are essential contributors to global market expansion. Furthermore, reduced pesticide and crop protection agent prices to preserve these crops during farming encourage farmers to adopt GMO crops, encouraging GMO feed outreach.
The poultry segment grabbed the highest revenue share and is estimated to hold that position during the anticipated time. Rising demand for bird-based products in many parts of the world will promote the development of the poultry sector and, as a result, raise demand for poultry feed, facilitating the growth of the poultry application. Rising consumer health consciousness, combined with an increasing preference for protein-rich food products, is primarily driving the poultry industry in India. Furthermore, increased exposure to foreign cuisines, changing consumer dietary habits, and growing acceptance of non-vegetarian or eggetarian diets drive demand for broiler meat and eggs.
The North American genetically modified feed market is expected to register the highest market share in revenue soon. Agriculture is a significant sector in the United States, and maize and soybean crop production is increasing in North America. Furthermore, North America is the world's top exporter of genetically engineered crops. As a result, the market in this region's revenue is expanding. The rising disposable income and a growing population of people interested in the genetically modified feed are driving the growth of the sector in the region. In addition, Asia Pacific is projected to grow rapidly in the global genetically modified feed market. Favorable foreign direct investments, beneficial trade policies in the domestic feed manufacturing industries, and advancements in the agriculture sector are poised to accelerate the region's genetically modified feed market expansion.
