Europe Feed Amino Acids Market Trends

Europe is 3rd largest exporter of poultry meat and broiler meat production accounted for 82.6% of poultry meat production which is expected to drive the demand for poultry production

  • Europe was a major producer and exporter of poultry meat globally, with an estimated annual production of approximately 13.4 million metric tons in 2021. Despite being the second most consumed meat in the region, with a consumption rate of 26.9 kg per capita per year, poultry production in Europe has not kept pace with rising global demand. Poland is the largest producer of poultry meat in the region, accounting for 19.2% of production or 2.5 million metric tons, followed by France (12.5%), Spain (12.3%), Germany (12%), and Italy (10.4%).
  • Broiler meat production constituted the majority (82.6%) of total poultry meat production in the European Union in 2021, followed by duck meat at 3.3%. Europe's poultry flock numbered approximately 2.45 billion birds in 2021, with Russia, France, the Netherlands, Ukraine, Poland, and the United Kingdom collectively comprising more than 50% of the population. The laying hen segment is experiencing growth across Europe due to increased egg consumption, which rose from 5,864 metric tons in 2017 to 6,135 thousand metric tons in 2021.
  • Europe is the fourth-largest importer and the third-largest exporter of poultry meat globally. In 2021, the European Union exported roughly 2,252 thousand metric tons (carcass weight) of poultry meat to various countries, including the United Kingdom, Ghana, and Ukraine. Overall, the increasing production of poultry birds, rising demand for poultry products, and growing consumption of eggs are expected to be key drivers of market growth in the European region.

High demand for fish feed which accounted for 82% and surge in seafood imports had a negative impact on compound feed for aquaculture

  • In 2022, Europe held a significant share of 8.0% in global aquaculture compound feed production, with a production volume of 4.5 million metric tons. The compounded feed production witnessed a notable increase of 15% between 2018 and 2022, driven by the growing demand for nutrient-balanced feed to reduce the risk of disease and improve feed efficiency. However, aquaculture feed production observed a decline of 21.2% in 2018, which may have been influenced by the surge in seafood imports and the relatively low prices of imported seafood, impacting the compound feed market in 2018.
  • The major aqua feed producers in the European region are Turkey, the United Kingdom, the Netherlands, Spain, Italy, and France. The region produced 17.4 million metric tons of aquaculture species in 2021, indicating a growth of 1.7% since 2018. The growth is attributed to the rise in population and per capita consumption of seafood, which is driving aquaculture production in the region. This, in turn, is propelling the demand for compound feed, which is expected to increase by 18.2% during the forecast period (2023-2029).
  • Fish feed dominates aqua feed production, accounting for an 82% share in 2022, followed by shrimp feed and other aquatic species feed, with a share of 4.3% and 13.7%, respectively, in the region. Fish food is the most consumed aquatic food across the region, and it is highly produced compared to other aquatic species. The expanding aquaculture sector, driven by the rising demand for seafood and aquaculture products and the growing awareness regarding quality meat, are the major factors augmenting the growth of the market studied.
