Asia-Pacific Compound Feed Market Analysis
The Asia-Pacific Compound Feed Market size is estimated at USD 220.59 billion in 2025, and is expected to reach USD 261.99 billion by 2030, at a CAGR of 3.5% during the forecast period (2025-2030).
- Livestock production has increased across Asian countries and animal categories to meet changing dietary preferences, particularly in developing markets. Although Asia’s livestock sector has predominantly industrialized, small-scale and marginal farmers continue to operate, especially in Southeast Asian countries. Fish and shrimp contribute significantly to human nutrition by providing essential nutrients. This has increased the focus on cultivating aquatic species like fish and shrimp for human consumption.
- Asia Pacific is the world’s largest region for both the production and consumption of compound feed, significantly impacting the global compound feed market. The region’s expanding industrial livestock production has increased feed production capacities in its major economies. According to the FAO, Asia’s 2023 production reached 119,751,152.0 metric tons for cattle, 39,259,127 metric tons for poultry, and 819,634,883 metric tons for pig meat. These figures represent an increase from 2022’s production of 117,215,477 metric tons for cattle, 38,147,481 metric tons for poultry, and 809,644,006 metric tons for pig meat.
Asia-Pacific Compound Feed Market Trends
Surge in Meat and Seafood Consumption
- In Asia, a growing middle class and increasing income levels are reshaping dietary preferences. This shift has led to a notable rise in per capita consumption of meat and seafood. According to a report by Asia Research and Engagement (ARE) 2021, meat and seafood consumption in Asia is projected to surge by 78% by 2050.
- As affluent and health-conscious consumers in both high-income and emerging nations shift their dietary preferences, global per capita availability of protein sources is projected to increase from 83.9g per day in the base period to 88.4g per day by 2032. Heightened awareness about the significance of protein-rich diets is driving this surge, particularly in the consumption of animal protein sources.
- In the Asia- Pacific region, fisheries and aquaculture are becoming vital sources of protein, foreign exchange, and livelihoods, significantly contributing to the population’s well-being. By 2032, Asia is projected to account for over 70% of global fish production, with the bulk of this increase anticipated from the region. China, India, Indonesia, and Vietnam are anticipated to be the primary drivers of this output growth. Looking ahead, the region is set to enhance livestock and aquaculture yields through improved feed management practices and a greater reliance on compound feed.

China dominates the market
- China ranks among the world’s top producers of compound feed, driven by its soaring meat consumption and substantial animal population. Key factors fueling this feed production demand include the country’s expansive poultry farms, a growing animal populace, a quest for affordable animal protein, and poultry producers’ emphasis on boosting productivity through enhanced feed conversion ratios (FCR) via increased compound feed usage.
- In 2021, China’s poultry meat consumption reached 22,913 thousand metric tons, with projections estimating a rise to 23,311 thousand metric tons by 2028. This upward trend suggests a burgeoning poultry sector in the nation. The Food and Agriculture Organization (FAO) reported that poultry meat production in China surged to 26.4 million metric tons in 2023, up from 25.2 million metric tons in 2022.
- The US-China trade war’s aftershocks may counteract the declining trend of commercial feed prices in the US, primarily due to a shortage of feed raw materials. Furthermore, as demand for meat-based products rises, so too will the demand for compound feed in the U.S.
