Shrimp feed comprises specialized diets tailored to fulfill the nutritional needs of cultivated shrimp. These formulations typically incorporate a well-balanced combination of proteins, carbohydrates, fats, vitamins, and minerals, aimed at promoting optimal shrimp growth, health, and reproduction.
The primary categories of shrimp feed include starter grade, grower grade, finisher grade, and specialized shrimp feed. Starter-grade feed is designed specifically for young shrimp during their initial developmental stages. It caters to various shrimp species such as Pacific whiteleg shrimp, black tiger shrimp, among others. Ingredients commonly found in these feeds include fish meal, plant-based feeds, soybean meal, wheat-based feeds, corn-based feeds, and others. Additionally, additives such as vitamins, proteins, antioxidants, antibiotics, fatty acids, and feed enzymes are often incorporated.

The shrimp feed market size has grown strongly in recent years. It will grow from $4.24 billion in 2023 to $4.51 billion in 2024 at a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 6.4%. The increase in aquaculture production, advancements in feed production technology, significant investments in shrimp farming, sustainability efforts in feed production, and heightened research and development have fueled growth in the historical period.
The shrimp feed market size is expected to see strong growth in the next few years. It will grow to $5.83 billion in 2028 at a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 6.7%. Anticipated growth in the forecast period can be attributed to soaring global shrimp demand, the proliferation of shrimp farming, regulatory modifications, escalating seafood consumption, and technological progress. Dominant trends during this period encompass heightened demand for sustainable feeds, escalating costs of animal feed ingredients, progress in aquaculture technology, a shift towards plant-based proteins, and stricter environmental regulations.
The increasing demand for seafood is anticipated to drive the growth of the shrimp feed market in the coming years. Seafood encompasses edible aquatic animals or plants harvested from freshwater or saltwater environments for human consumption. The surge in seafood demand is influenced by factors such as health consciousness, cultural preferences, convenience, sustainability concerns, and globalization. High-quality shrimp feed plays a crucial role in supporting the sustainable expansion of shrimp aquaculture, meeting the rising global seafood demand while minimizing environmental impact and preserving the health of aquatic ecosystems. For example, as reported by the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration in February 2024, per capita consumption of seafood products, including canned, fresh, frozen, and cured items, rose to 20.5 pounds per person in 2021, marking a 1.5-pound increase from 2020. Consequently, the growing demand for seafood propels the growth of the shrimp feed market.
Prominent companies in the shrimp feed market are concentrating on developing innovative products, such as functional shrimp feed, to improve feed efficiency and sustainability. Functional shrimp feed refers to specialized diets formulated not only to fulfill the basic nutritional requirements of shrimp but also to enhance their overall health, growth, and disease resistance. These feeds often incorporate additional ingredients to provide specific benefits beyond basic nutrition. For instance, in May 2024, Skretting, a Norway-based aquafeed production company, introduced Armis, a functional shrimp feed. This new feed is engineered to bolster the resilience of shrimp facing adverse conditions and deliver optimal nutrition to support farm performance. It was specifically tailored to address the needs of shrimp farmers in India, addressing challenges posed by parasites such as Enterocytozoon hepatopenaei (EHP) and other shrimp farming diseases.
In March 2021, BioMar, a Denmark-based feed manufacturing company, acquired Viet-UC for an undisclosed sum. This acquisition grants BioMar access to one of the world's leading shrimp-producing nations, with a production output nearing 500,000 metric tons of shrimp. Viet-UC is a Vietnam-based shrimp feed producer, further strengthening BioMar's position in the market.
