According to the United States Department of Agriculture (USDA), some major agricultural exporters, such as Russia, Ukraine, and Vietnam, introduced export quotas or outright bans of international shipments, primarily food products. Agricultural production was also hampered due to low labor availability. According to the European Parliament, due to the pandemic’s impact on the agri-food sector, governments and commissions had to adopt various measures to support producers.

The global export of chicken, beef, and pork witnessed a significant decline due to the challenges posed by the outbreak of the COVID-19 pandemic. Furthermore, the U.S. government imposed curfews, resulting in many farmers resorting to panic-buying of animal feed to avoid potential shortages. According to the American Feed Association, estimated animal feed consumption at the beginning of 2020 was 252.6 million tons; later, the consumption rate fell to 1.7%, at an estimated 248.4 million tons, with 4.2 million tons less feed consumed. Additionally, the transportation & logistics sector was significantly affected due to employees contracting COVID-19, which reduced deliveries and compelled farmers to stock their animal feed supplies.

The volatile environment impacted animal feed supply chains due to declining livestock production, increased raw material costs, and more complex and time-consuming routing of goods. However, the rising preference for other alternative feed sources, including fish meal and insect-based meal, over traditional feedstock as a rich source of protein & immunity booster during the current outbreak of COVID-19 has created a new wave of interest in the animal feed market, which will in turn also boost the market at a relatively positive rate for companies to invest and launch animal feeds.

Based on species, the aquaculture segment is projected to register the highest CAGR during the forecast period.

Furthermore, the increasing need to ensure the health and safety of fish in the aquaculture sector and the consistent growth of the aquaculture industry are expected to drive the growth of this segment.

Based on form, in 2022, the pellets segment is expected to account for the largest share of the overall global animal feed market. The large market share of this segment is mainly attributed to its benefits, such as increased animal performance, enhanced palatability, ease of storage and handling, decreased feed waste, and enriched nutritional properties. However, the crumbles segment is projected to register the highest CAGR during the forecast period of 2022–2029.
