NEW YORK, Aug. 2, 2022 /PRNewswire/ -- As per Zion Market Research study, the global insect feed market size was worth around USD 924.50 million in 2021 and is estimated to grow to about USD 1747.97 million by 2028, with a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of approximately 11.20% over the forecast period.

Insect Feed Market: Overview

Meals that have been heavily protein-enhanced and produced from various additives and unprocessed components are known as insect feeds. These concoctions are made specifically with aquafeed in mind, considering the requirements of the intended animal. They are made by feed compounders such as crumbles, pellets, or different types of meals. Insect feed is becoming more well-liked as a sustainable source of protein for livestock, companion animals, and people. Insect feed is a helpful product with many applications because it is available in various formats. Insect feed can completely replace or enhance conventional feed sources. Additionally, it's becoming more and more common to eat insects as food.

The market for insect feed has remained dormant for far too long. However, customers are paying attention now that a new batch of insect feed products is available. The market for edible insects used as animal feed is seeing a lot of innovation. As the population expands, so does the demand for food. To fulfill the growing worldwide need for food, meat production has increased. Animals must be fed properly to improve the quality of the meat they produce. The feed business has created a market for edible insects for animal feed. Insects provide high protein levels, which is essential for enhancing animal growth. Farmers are looking for alternative sources of protein to meet the rising demand.

Key Industry Insights & Findings of the Insect Feed Market Reports:

  • As per the analysis shared by our research analyst, the Insect Feed Market is expected to grow annually at a CAGR of around 11.20 % (2022-2028).
  • Through the primary research, it was established that the Insect Feed Market was valued at approximately USD 924.50 million in 2021 and is projected to reach roughly USD 1747.97 million by 2028.
  • The market share of alternative protein sources, such as insects, has increased by 38% in recent years because of the rising demand for diets high in protein.
  • Since insect meal is a significant source of income in rural areas, the decline in the rural market increases the income shares of the remaining rural population, driving up the market for insect feed across the country.
  • Approximately 33.0 percent of the global market for edible insects for animal feed was accounted for by North America in 2021.
  • The Middle East and Africa have a higher need for edible insects for animal feed than Latin America. However, it is predicted that the market in Latin America will expand more quickly throughout the forecast period than in the Middle East and Africa.

Zion Market Research published the latest report titled "Insect Feed Market By Product Type (Meal Worms, Fly Larvae, Silkworms, Cicadas, and Other), By Application (Aquaculture, Pig Nutrition, Poultry Nutrition, Dairy Nutrition and Others), and By Region - Global and Regional Industry Overview, Market Intelligence, Comprehensive Analysis, Historical Data, and Forecasts 2022 – 2028." into their research database.

Industry Dynamics:

Insect Feed Market: Growth Drivers

  • Growing use of insect feed due to animals' natural dietary patterns to drive market growth.

Numerous animals, including birds, poultry, fish, and other species, naturally consume insects as part of their diet. The use of insect proteins in commercial feed is predicted to increase because these animals are natively adapted to eating insect feed. Additionally, insects have bioactive components that enhance gut health, making them highly sought after by animal husbandry businesses. Additionally, the demand for food products derived from animals has grown as a result of the expanding population and changing dietary preferences. An extra supply of protein-based feed from environmentally friendly sources is needed to meet market demand. The Food and Agriculture Organization predicts that by 2050, there will be a 465 million tons increase in the demand for livestock products worldwide. In the upcoming years, these factors are anticipated to favor the growth of the global insect feed market.

Insect Feed Market: Restraints

  • Stringent rules and regulations act as a barrier for market expansion.

In the upcoming years, market growth is expected to be constrained by the strict laws and regulations related to introducing new insect feed. For instance, the Bovine Spongiform Encephalopathy (BSE) problem, which poses a serious threat to consumer health and safety, significantly impacts the European approach to using insects as feed. Additionally, one of the main roadblocks to the industrialization of insect feed in many areas is the lack of clear laws and standards governing the use of insects as food.

Insect Feed Market: Opportunities

  • Emerging insect protein applications to offer growth opportunities for market

Protein sources have been the subject of much research lately. The nutritional value and essential amino acids of novel protein sources must be maintained while the flavor and price are improved. The use of insect protein is becoming increasingly widespread as the industry grows. Insect-based protein components are typically derived from the insects' muscles, body fat, and outer coats.

These come in both water-soluble and water-insoluble forms in their natural state. Worldwide sales of insect feed have increased as a result of this. Livestock receives nutrition from insect feed, which promotes healthy growth. Farmers will look to insects as alternative sources of protein in the future, creating significant growth potential for the global insect feed market.

Insect Feed Market: Challenges

  • Scaling production to pose a challenge for growth of the market.

Start-ups must discover dependable, consistent methods of production scaling to take advantage of economies of scale, maximize returns, and compete with other suppliers of animal feed supplies. Currently, the manufacturing capacity of insect feed is dwarfed by the size of the current feedstock sector. Even extremely high-quality insect meal won't make a difference for a feedstock factory that routinely processes millions of tonnes through highly industrialized methods. Some of the difficulties are securing enough breeding stock, generating money to support infrastructure investments, and risk management in a sector without a spot market or secondary supply source.

Global Insect Feed Market: Segmentation

  • The global insect feed market is segregated based on product type, application, and region.

The market, based on product type, is divided into mealworms, fly larvae, silkworms, cicadas, and other creatures. Mealworms are expected to account for a sizeable portion of the global insect feed market since they contain significant amounts of copper, potassium, iron, zinc, selenium, and vitamins. For instance, mealworms often contain more vitamins than beef, except for vitamin B12. The abundance of fly larvae is also anticipated to increase their use in insect food production.

Based on the kind of application, the market is divided into sectors for aquaculture, pig nutrition, poultry nutrition, dairy nutrition, and other areas. Aquaculture is anticipated to significantly dominate the market for insect feed. Both fish production and consumption have increased significantly during the last few decades. Due to the success of the aquaculture sector, which now provides almost half of the world's fish, the need for insect feed from the aquaculture industry is anticipated to rise.

Insect Feed Market: Recent Developments

  • In October 2021, the Aspire Food Group revealed plans to build a brand-new, fully automated cricket processing plant in London, Ontario, Canada. With this investment, the company may generate 10,000 tonnes of items made from crickets annually. As a result, Aspire Food Group would be able to meet the rising demand from the animal feed sector.
  • In September 2021, Insect announced a partnership with Pure Simple True LLC to launch its first product in the United States. The product is vital in dog food because it is a high-quality, sustainable protein. The company expanded and provided its products across the United States thanks to its introduction. The product introduction was also a crucial milestone for the business's further expansion in the US market.
  • InnovaFeed and Cargill collaborated to use insect oil for pig feed in May 2021, expanding their alliance beyond aquaculture nutrition. By 2026, this expanded relationship should help more than 20 million piglets and give the business a strategic opportunity to contribute to the improvement of the world's food system.
  • Beta Hatch declared its intention to grow its activities in December 2020. It received new funding of USD 9.3 million. This action assisted the business in erecting one of North America's biggest mealworm facilities.

Regional Dominance:

  • Increasing demand for a protein-rich diet likely to help Asia Pacific dominate the global market

Asia-Pacific region has long dominated the global insect feed market. The market share of alternative protein sources, such as insects, has increased by 38% in recent years because of the rising demand for diets high in protein. The popularity of the bug feed for cattle has increased as a result. Since insect meal is a significant source of income in rural areas, the decline in the rural market increases the income shares of the remaining rural population, driving up the market for insect feed across the country.

Approximately 33.0 percent of the global market for edible insects for animal feed was accounted for by North America in 2021. The bug species with the fastest growth rate in the region's market for edible insects used as animal feed are mealworms, black soldier flies, and orthoptera.

The Middle East and Africa have a higher need for edible insects for animal feed than Latin America. However, it is predicted that the market in Latin America will expand more quickly throughout the forecast period than in the Middle East and Africa.
