Animal Genetics Market Size, Share, Forecast, & Trends Analysis by Animal (Companion [Dogs, Cats] Livestock [Poultry, Porcine, Bovine]) Services (DNA Profile, Genetic Diseases, Traits) Sample Type (Blood, Tissue, Embryo) End User-Global Forecast to 2031
The Animal Genetics Market is expected to reach $9.12 billion by 2031, at a CAGR of 5.8% from 2024 to 2031.
Following thorough secondary and primary research and in-depth analysis of the market scenario, the report discusses key industry drivers, restraints, challenges, opportunities, and trends.
The growth of this market is driven by the surge in demand for precision breeding methods to enhance the health & productivity of livestock and companion animals, the growing awareness among farmers and pet owners regarding the advantages of genetic testing for diagnosing infectious diseases, the increasing adoption of advanced genomic technologies in both livestock and companion animal sectors, the rising prevalence of genetic diseases in animals, and government initiatives and funding aimed at advancing animal genetic research & development.
Moreover, emerging markets, such as Asia Pacific and Latin America, with growing livestock and pet populations and the development of portable and affordable on-farm/near-animal genetic testing solutions, are expected to offer market growth opportunities.
Based on testing service, the animal genetics market is segmented into DNA profile testing, genetic traits testing, genetic disease testing, and other testing services. In 2024, the genetic traits testing segment is expected to account for the largest share of 45.1% of the animal genetics market. This segment's large market share of this segment can be attributed to the increasing adoption of animal precision and cross-breeding practices for maximum production traits in farm animals, the rising need for the identification of traits such as the amount of milk and high muscle mass-related genes in livestock, and the growing adoption of genetic testing to identify ancestry and authenticity of breeds in pets, particularly in dogs, by breeders and associations.
Based on animal type, the animal genetics market is segmented into companion animals, livestock, and other animals. In 2024, the companion animals segment is expected to account for the largest share of the animal genetics market. The large market share of this segment can be attributed to the large population of pets globally, increasing expenditures on pet health, rising demand for pet breeding and purebreds, including ancestry testing in companion animals, particularly dogs, and the increasing adoption of selective breeding practices for genetic modifications.
Based on sample type, the animal genetics market is segmented into blood, tissue, semen, embryo, and other sample types. The blood segment is projected to witness the highest growth rate during the forecast period of 2024-2031. The large market share of this segment can be attributed to the convenience and reliability of blood samples for genetic testing, their effectiveness in disease identification, and their utility in sequencing to differentiate genetic subtypes affecting various animal traits.
Based on end user, the animal genetics market is segmented into veterinary hospitals and clinics, animal breeders, academic & research institutes, and pet owners. In 2024, the animal breeders segment is expected to account for the largest share of the animal genetics market. This segment's large market share can be attributed to the increasing number of animal breeders, the proliferation of companies specializing in commercial semen and embryo provision, and the rising demand for purebred companion animals and farm animals with superior physical traits.
An in-depth analysis of the geographical scenario of the animal genetics market provides detailed qualitative and quantitative insights into the market across five major geographies (North America, Europe, Asia-Pacific, Latin America, and the Middle East & Africa) along with the coverage of major countries in each region. IN 2024, North America is expected to account for the largest share of the global animal genetics market, followed by Europe and Asia-Pacific. However, the market in Asia-Pacific is projected to register the highest CAGR of 6.8% during the forecast period of 2024-2031. The market growth in Asia-Pacific is driven by the high consumption of animal-derived food products, the region's large population of livestock animals, and the growing awareness of the importance of genetic profiling in animals.
