Animal Intestinal Health Market Forecasts to 2030 - Global Analysis By Product Type (Probiotics, Synbiotics, Prebiotics, Phytogenics and Acidifiers), Livestock, Form, Source, Function and By Geography

According to Stratistics MRC, the Global Animal Intestinal Health Market is accounted for $4.07 billion in 2023 and is expected to reach $8.04 billion by 2030 growing at a CAGR of 10.2% during the forecast period. Maintaining animal intestinal health is crucial for overall well-being. A balanced diet with proper fiber content promotes digestive function and nutrient absorption. Probiotics, beneficial bacteria, aid in maintaining a healthy gut microbiome, supporting immune responses and preventing harmful pathogens. Adequate water intake ensures proper hydration and smooth digestion. Avoiding stressors, such as overcrowding and abrupt dietary changes, minimizes gastrointestinal disturbances. Regular veterinary check-ups, parasite control, and vaccination contribute to long-term intestinal health. Implementing these measures fosters a robust digestive system, enhancing the overall health and longevity of animals.

According to a research article published in the Edition Diffusion Presse Sciences in 2020, diseases affecting the gastrointestinal tract of livestock have the largest percentage of all diseases, which cause significant economic damage associated with high mortality and treatment costs.

Market Dynamics:

Driver:

Increasing awareness among pet owners and livestock producers

As consumers prioritize the well-being of their pets and seek healthier, more sustainable agricultural practices, there is an increased demand for specialized nutrition, supplements, and veterinary solutions. This awareness drives innovation, prompting the development of advanced products that support digestive health in animals. Consequently, the animal intestinal health market experiences growth, with a surge in the adoption of probiotics, prebiotics, and other preventive measures. This trend not only fosters better animal welfare but also contributes to the overall expansion and evolution of the animal health industry.

Restraint:

Stringent regulations and approval processes

Compliance challenges and the time-consuming nature of regulatory reviews hinder the timely introduction of innovative products. High compliance costs also burden manufacturers, limiting their capacity for research and development. This regulatory burden disproportionately affects smaller companies, hindering their entry into the market. Additionally, the prolonged approval timelines may stifle the industry's agility in responding to emerging health challenges, impeding the swift deployment of effective solutions. These factors collectively dampen market growth, hampering the industry's ability to meet evolving consumer and agricultural demands for improved animal intestinal health.

Opportunity:

Global demand for meat and dairy products

As livestock production intensifies to meet this demand, there's a parallel emphasis on maintaining optimal digestive health. Producers increasingly invest in supplements, feed additives, and management practices to enhance the intestinal well-being of animals. This surge in demand for products supporting digestive health is driven by the need for efficient and sustainable production methods. Consequently, the animal intestinal health market experiences growth, propelled by the intersection of consumer demand for animal welfare, sustainable practices, and the imperative to meet the rising global appetite for meat and dairy.

Threat:

Limited awareness in some regions

In areas where understanding of the significance of animal digestive well-being is lacking, there's a slower adoption of relevant products and practices. This restrains market growth as potential consumers, including pet owners and livestock producers, may not prioritize or invest in solutions for optimal intestinal health. The absence of awareness also hampers educational efforts, hindering the dissemination of crucial information about the benefits of such products.

Covid-19 Impact

Supply chain disruptions, economic uncertainties, and altered consumer priorities have impacted product availability and demand. Veterinary services faced challenges due to restrictions, affecting diagnostics and treatments. However, increased pet ownership and a heightened focus on animal welfare presented opportunities for certain segments. The pandemic underscored the importance of resilient and sustainable farming practices, potentially driving interest in products supporting animal intestinal health. While initial challenges were evident, the industry exhibited adaptability, and emerging trends in pet care and agriculture could shape the market's trajectory in the post-pandemic landscape.

The probiotics segment is expected to be the largest during the forecast period

The probiotics segment is estimated to have a lucrative growth, due to enhancing the balance of beneficial gut bacteria; probiotics improve digestion, nutrient absorption, and immune responses in animals. Livestock producers and pet owners increasingly incorporate probiotics into animal diets, fostering a demand surge. These microorganisms mitigate digestive disorders, reduce the need for antibiotics, and promote overall well-being. As awareness grows regarding the significance of a healthy gut microbiome, the market witnesses a notable expansion.

The gut health maintenance segment is expected to have the highest CAGR during the forecast period

The gut health maintenance segment is anticipated to witness the highest CAGR growth during the forecast period, because as pet owners and livestock producers recognize the pivotal role of gut health in overall well-being, there is a growing demand for specialized products. Proactive gut health management minimizes the risk of digestive disorders, enhancing livestock productivity and pet longevity. This trend expands the market for innovative solutions, including feed additives and nutritional interventions.

Region with largest share:

Asia Pacific is projected to hold the largest market share during the forecast period owing to the region's expanding livestock industry and rising awareness about animal health. Increased demand for meat, dairy, and pet products drives the adoption of intestinal health solutions. The market benefits from a growing middle-class population, changing dietary habits, and a focus on sustainable farming practices. Government initiatives supporting animal welfare and health further contribute to market expansion in this region.

Region with highest CAGR:

North America is projected to have the highest CAGR over the forecast period, owing to the region's consumers prioritize premium pet care products, driving the demand for supplements and specialized nutrition that support animal intestinal health. Livestock producers are incorporating innovative solutions to enhance digestive well-being, aligning with a growing awareness of sustainable and ethical farming practices. Additionally the presence of key industry players, coupled with advancements in research and development, positions North America as a significant contributor to the global market's continuous growth.
