The term veterinary microbiome refers to the community of microorganisms, including bacteria, viruses, fungi, and other microbes, that reside in and on animals. These microbial populations play a crucial role in digestion, immunity, and disease prevention, making them essential for maintaining animal health. Veterinary microbiome research aims to understand and regulate these microbial communities to enhance the well-being of companion animals, livestock, and other species. Imbalances in the microbiome have been linked to various common disorders in animals, such as diarrhea, stomach pain, gastric inflammation, arthritis, allergies, and food sensitivities, particularly due to the complex microbial interactions within the gastrointestinal (GI) tract.
Increasing awareness among pet owners and livestock producers highlights the importance of maintaining a balanced microbiome for overall health. Scientific research continues to reveal the connection between microbiome imbalances and disease, driving demand for microbiome-based solutions. Additionally, regulatory policies and consumer preferences are shifting toward reducing antibiotic use in animal care, promoting the adoption of natural alternatives like probiotics and postbiotics for disease prevention.
Moreover, advances in microbiome research have also paved the way for customized diets and functional feeds tailored to an animal’s microbiome profile, significantly improving health and performance. As a result, startups and major pet food companies are investing in microbiome-enhancing nutrition, further advancing this rapidly growing field. In January 2024, Novozymes acquired Microbiome Labs, an Illinois-based company specializing in probiotic and microbiome solutions for consumer health. This acquisition strengthened Novozymes’ position in the microbiome industry, expanding its portfolio of innovative probiotic solutions. The gut microbiome plays a crucial role in breaking down food, absorbing nutrients, and producing essential vitamins, contributing to overall digestive health. Beneficial bacteria help maintain a balanced digestive system, preventing issues such as diarrhea, constipation, and bloating.
Additionally, a healthy microbiome supports skin health by reducing inflammation and allergic reactions, as imbalances can lead to conditions like itchy skin, hot spots, or chronic ear infections in pets. In the same month, Kemin Industries launched Enterosure, a probiotic solution designed to control pathogenic bacterial growth in poultry and livestock. This innovative product promotes a healthy microbiome, enhances intestinal resilience, manages gut health challenges, and ultimately improves animal productivity. These developments highlight the increasing importance of microbiome-based solutions in both companion animals and livestock, driving advancements in animal health and nutrition.

The veterinary microbiome market is segmented based on the by-product, application and, animal type. Based on the product, the market is divided into phage therapy products, functional food applications, gut health test kits, microbial proteins, and others. Based on the Application, the market is divided into pathogen control, microbiome analysis, and nutrition. Based on the animal type, the market is divided into companion animals, poultry, ruminants, swine, aquaculture, and others. Based on the Companion animals, the segment is divided into dogs and cats.
Based on the product, the market is divided into phage therapy products, functional food applications, gut health test kits, microbial proteins, and others. Among these, the functional food segment is expected to have the highest growth rate during the forecast period. The functional food segment is divided into probiotics, prebiotics, and postbiotics. Pet owners and livestock producers increasingly recognize the gut microbiome's vital role in digestion, immunity, and overall health. Scientific studies link microbiome imbalances to various diseases, driving demand for functional foods that support gut health. Growing concerns over antibiotic resistance have led to regulatory changes and consumer pressure to reduce antibiotic use in animal feed. As a natural alternative, probiotics and prebiotics help promote beneficial gut bacteria and prevent infections without relying on antibiotics. With a rising preference for natural, non-pharmaceutical solutions, functional foods offer preventive care, minimizing the need for medications and veterinary interventions.
Based on the animal type, the market is divided into companion animals, poultry, ruminants, swine, aquaculture, and others. Based on the Companion animals, the segment is divided into dogs and cats. Among these, the poultry segment dominates the market. Poultry is one of the most widely consumed meats worldwide, creating a strong demand for sustainable and efficient production. A healthy microbiome plays a crucial role in enhancing growth rates, improving feed conversion efficiency, and boosting overall productivity, making microbiome solutions essential for the poultry industry. To support gut health and disease prevention, poultry producers are increasingly incorporating probiotics, prebiotics, and postbiotics into feed formulations. These microbiome-enhancing additives help strengthen gut integrity, reduce pathogenic bacteria, and optimize bird performance. Additionally, companies and research institutions are investing in the development of species-specific probiotics and microbiome-based vaccines, further advancing poultry health and production efficiency.
The Asia-Pacific region dominates the veterinary microbiome market due to its large livestock and poultry population, increasing meat consumption, rising demand for antibiotic-free animal products, and advancements in microbiome research and biotechnology. Rising pet ownership in urban areas of China, Japan, India, and South Korea is increasing the demand for microbiome-based pet food, probiotics, and digestive health solutions. Pet food companies in Asia-Pacific are incorporating microbiome-enhancing ingredients to cater to health-conscious pet owners. Major animal health companies and biotech firms are expanding their presence in Asia-Pacific to tap into the growing microbiome market.

InsightAce Analytic follows a standard and comprehensive market research methodology focused on offering the most accurate and precise market insights. The methods followed for all our market research studies include three significant steps – primary research, secondary research, and data modeling and analysis - to derive the current market size and forecast it over the forecast period. In this study, these three steps were used iteratively to generate valid data points (minimum deviation), which were cross-validated through multiple approaches mentioned below in the data modeling section.
Through secondary research methods, information on the market under study, its peer, and the parent market was collected. This information was then entered into data models. The resulted data points and insights were then validated by primary participants.
Based on additional insights from these primary participants, more directional efforts were put into doing secondary research and optimize data models. This process was repeated till all data models used in the study produced similar results (with minimum deviation). This way, this iterative process was able to generate the most accurate market numbers and qualitative insights.
Secondary research
The secondary research sources that are typically mentioned to include, but are not limited to:
The paid sources for secondary research like Factiva, OneSource, Hoovers, and Statista
Primary Research:
Primary research involves telephonic interviews, e-mail interactions, as well as face-to-face interviews for each market, category, segment, and subsegment across geographies
