The feed yeast market size has grown rapidly in recent years. It will grow from $3.52 billion in 2024 to $3.87 billion in 2025 at a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 10.1%. The growth in the historic period can be attributed to increasing demand for animal protein, livestock industry growth, focus on animal nutrition, ban on antibiotic growth promoters, government initiatives and regulations.
The feed yeast market size is expected to see rapid growth in the next few years. It will grow to $5.79 billion in 2029 at a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 10.6%. The growth in the forecast period can be attributed to increasing meat consumption in emerging markets, rising consumer preference for natural products, focus on sustainable animal farming practices. Major trends in the forecast period include advancements in yeast strain development, rising popularity of yeast as a protein source, expansion of aquaculture industry, customized feed solutions, biotechnological innovations.
Increased industrialized livestock production is expected to propel the growth of the feed yeast market. Livestock production refers to the products derived from farm animals. It is a crucial component of world agriculture, contributing to food security and nutrition. Animal feed with more yeast enhances and boosts development, health, and production. Additionally, yeast can lessen health hazards for dairy cows fed a starch-rich diet by enhancing the digestion of fiber in the rumen to encourage the proliferation of microbes. In poultry, yeast offers a practical element that satisfies the energy requirements of chickens. For instance, according to the Food and Agriculture Organization of the United Nations, livestock supports about 1. 3 billion people's livelihoods and access to food and nutrition and contribute 40% of the worldwide value of agricultural output. Therefore, the increased industrialized livestock production will drive the growth of the feed yeast market.
The increasing consumption of meat products is expected to propel the growth of the feed yeast market going forward. Meat products refer to food products that are derived from the flesh of animals, primarily livestock, poultry, and seafood. Feed yeast aids in improving the quality of meat products. Yeast and yeast-derived products are recognized as potential feed additives due to their beneficial impacts on poultry and livestock. For instance, in March 2022, according to the Australian Bureau of Statistics, an Australian government agency responsible for statistical collection and analysis, the chicken meat production in Australia for the quarter ending March 2022 increased by 3. 2% in terms of seasonal adjustments. The number of chickens slaughtered during this period also saw a slight increase of 0. 5%, reaching a total of 173. 4 million. The total chicken meat production for this quarter was 347,304 tons. Therefore, the increasing consumption of meat products is driving the feed yeast market during forecast period.
Major companies in the feed yeast market are concentrating on creating innovative microbial solutions to improve animal nutrition and health. The development of these products is based on extensive research, utilizing advanced techniques to identify the best microbial strains. This scientific method guarantees that the products are safe and effective for pets. For example, in October 2023, Lallemand Animal Nutrition, a UK-based company specializing in the production and development of yeasts and bacteria, launched LALPROBIOME. This comprehensive platform is designed to enhance pet well-being through innovative microbial solutions and demonstrates the company's dedication to meeting the varied nutritional needs of companion animals. LALPROBIOME functions as a unified platform that encompasses a range of products specifically designed for pet health, including probiotics, postbiotics, and yeast-based solutions.
Major companies operating in the feed yeast market are increasing their focus on introducing advanced probiotic yeast for poultry feed to gain a competitive edge in the market. Probiotic yeast is a type of feed additive used in poultry nutrition to promote gut health and improve overall bird performance. It is used to enhance digestion, nutrient absorption, and immune function in poultry. For instance, in January 2023, Phileo by Lesaffre, a France-based provider of animal welfare and performance solutions based on live yeasts, bacteria and yeast products, developed, and introduced Actisaf Sc 47 HR+ probiotic yeast for poultry feed. The unique Actisaf Sc 47 HR+ microspherule shape was developed to provide inherent resistance to combined temperature, friction, and moisture in pelleting feed without the requirement for foreign material coating. The launch of Actisaf Sc 47 HR+ in the poultry sector aims to support poultry producers in achieving better feed efficiency and growth, ultimately benefiting both the birds and the farmers' bottom line.
In October 2024, Lesaffre, a yeast manufacturer based in France, acquired BiOrigin for an undisclosed sum. This acquisition aims to enhance Lesaffre's ability to produce yeast derivatives for savory ingredients and to meet the growing demand for natural solutions in the human food and animal nutrition markets. BiOrigin is a US-based company that manufactures specialty paper and tissue products, along with ingredients for both human food and animal nutrition.
