Aquafeed Market will grow at a CAGR of 5.37% to be valued at US$82.18 billion in 2030 from US$63.28 billion in 2025.
With the growing human population, the need for increased food production stands as a foremost concern for sustaining future food demands. To reduce the gap between food demand and supply, attention is turning to the sea for solutions. According to the World Bank, aquaculture is expected to become the primary source of seafood by 2030, driven by demand from the global middle class and limitations of wild capture fisheries. This expanding aquaculture industry is projected to significantly boost the aquafeed market. Additionally, growth in seafood trade due to globalization and increased consumer spending power further strengthens the aquafeed market. However, fluctuating prices of key raw materials such as fish oil and fish meal are driving the need for cost-effective alternatives while restraining market growth.
In the additive segment, amino acids are expected to show high growth rates over the forecast period due to increasing consumer demand for nutritionally enhanced aquatic products. Amino acids, as the building blocks of protein, play a crucial role in animal nutrition by supporting the production, growth, and overall health maintenance of aquatic species. Similarly, feed acidifiers are projected to experience substantial growth in coming years, with their adoption driven by ease of application and high efficiency.
Geographically, Asia Pacific held a dominant market share in 2024 and is expected to maintain its leading position through the forecast period. This regional growth is primarily driven by a flourishing aquaculture industry supported by available cheap labor and abundant natural resources. Rising seafood consumption and trade, particularly in China, are further contributing to this growth. The European aquafeed market is also experiencing significant expansion, fueled by increasing seafood consumption across major economies.
