The anticipated increase in livestock is expected to propel the growth of the farm animal healthcare market in the coming years. Livestock refers to agricultural animals that are kept, raised, and utilized by humans, including cows, horses, and pigs. As the livestock population grows, the demand for farm animal healthcare services increases, as these services protect animals from diseases such as swine flu and avian flu, which can also affect humans, workers, and veterinarians. For instance, in September 2023, the United States Department of Agriculture, a federal agency in the US responsible for laws related to farming, forestry, rural economic development, and food, reported a 1% increase in cattle production for 2023. Cattle slaughter rates are also projected to rise in 2023 and 2024. Beef production is expected to grow by eight percent in 2023 and two percent in 2024. Brazil is anticipated to remain the world's largest beef exporter, with exports of 3.35 million metric tons (MMT) in 2023 and 3.40 MMT in 2024, accounting for 30% of Brazil's production. Thus, the growing livestock populations are driving the expansion of the farm animal healthcare market.
The rising zoonotic diseases is expected to significantly contribute to the growth of the farm animal healthcare market going forward. Zoonotic diseases refers to contagious illnesses that spread from animals to people across species. Farm animal healthcare products and services help prevent the development and spread of pathogens related to zoonotic diseases in farm animals. For instance, according to the data released by the world health organization (WHO) a Switzerland-based intergovernmental organization spreading awareness about healthcare, 60% of emerging infectious diseases in humans are zoonotic. Therefore, the rising zoonotic diseases will drive the farm animal healthcare market.
Rapid developments in technology have emerged as a key trend gaining popularity in the farm animal healthcare market. Major companies in the farm animal healthcare sector are focused on developing new technologies to meet consumer demand and strengthen their position. For instance, in June 2023, Merck & Co., Inc. launched INNOVAX-ILT-IBD a dual-construct HVT vaccine for poultry heathcare that offers sustained defense against infectious bursal disease (IBD), infectious laryngotracheitis (ILT), and Marek's disease (MD). Instead of one ILT glycoprotein insert, INNOVAX-ILT-IBD has two. Moreover, results from clinical trials indicate that immunity to INNOVAX-ILT-IBD develops early and lasts a long time. INNOVAX-ILT-IBD can be injected subcutaneously (at day-old) or in ovo (after around 18 days of incubation) into layers, breeder flocks and broiler chickens in the hatchery to improve early-life protection.
Major companies in the farm animal healthcare market are focusing on developing data management and software solutions for managing data related to cattle and farm animal healthcare. Farm management software is a type of software that is designed to help farmers manage their operations more efficiently. It is used to optimize and manage farm operations and production activities. For instance, in January 2022, Zoetis a US-based animal healthcare company, launched Performance Ranch, a cattle healthcare platform which facilitates the simple collection of health and performance data, cost management, and real-time herd inventory tracking for cow-calf producers. The Performance Livestock Analytics software solutions for cattle producers are expanded with the addition of the new cow-calf management programme to the Performance Beef platform. Users may make informed decisions about finances, nutrition, genetics, and animal health with the help of this user-friendly software. Users can view performance variances and obtain up-to-date data to make better, quicker judgements on the health and marketability of their animals.
