United Kingdom Animal Feed Market Report and Forecast 2025-2034
Description
The United Kingdom animal feed market attained a volume of 14.16 MMT in 2024. The industry is expected to grow at a CAGR of 3.90% during the forecast period of 2025-2034 to attain a volume of 20.76 MMT by 2034.
United Kingdom Animal Feed Market Growth
By 2030, the United Kingdom’s population is expected to reach 70 million. This is expected to bolster the demand for animal-based proteins, thereby creating a favourable outlook for animal feed. This is prompting major market players to establish state-of-the-art production facilities for poultry and pig feed.
Nearly 660,000 tons of surplus food and waste are used to feed livestock in the UK. These low-opportunity cost inputs can lead to a reduction in fodder crop production while maximising land for grain crop cultivation. The sourcing of food waste from segregated supply chains for further processing into animal feed can serve as an important source of nutrients for livestock while ensuring human health. Nearly 80% of the food surplus used in animal feed consists of fresh vegetables and fruits, along with bakery items.
As legal regulations surrounding the usage of food waste in animal feed reduce, the market is expected to witness significant expansion . Besides, the increasing availability of barley (8.424 MT in 2022-23) and maize is expected to increase their incorporation into animal feed in the forecast period.
