India Feed Amino Acids Industry Segmentation

Lysine, Methionine, Threonine, Tryptophan are covered as segments by Sub Additive. Aquaculture, Poultry, Ruminants, Swine are covered as segments by Animal.

• In 2022, India emerged as the second-largest feed amino acid market in the Asia-Pacific region, accounting for 8.4% of the total market value. As essential amino acids are often insufficient in natural feedstuffs, supplementing them in animal diets enhances feed efficiency and promotes animal growth.
• Methionine and lysine are critical amino acids that serve various metabolic functions in monogastric animals. In India, lysine and methionine were the two most crucial feed amino acids by market value, accounting for over 72% of the total market value in 2022.
• Threonine, another essential amino acid for animals, is a limiting amino acid in swine and poultry diets, playing a crucial role in regulating nutritional metabolism, macromolecular biosynthesis, and gastrointestinal homeostasis. The market for threonine-feed amino acids in India is expected to register a CAGR of 5.6% during the forecast period.
• Poultry and ruminants were the most important animal types in terms of amino acid usage in India, accounting for 66% and 27.7% of the total feed amino acids market, respectively, in 2022. The larger share of ruminant feed amino acid usage was due to the increased animal headcount and amino acid requirement in the country's broiler and dairy cattle farming.
• India's feed amino acids market is projected to record a CAGR of 5.6% during the forecast period, mainly driven by the rising demand for meat and meat products and the growing awareness of the benefits of using amino acids to balance gut pH and prevent infections.
