Global Insect-Based Animal Feed Market Forecast 2035:
According to the report, the global insect-based animal feed market is projected to expand from USD 0.7 billion in 2025 to USD 2.3 billion by 2035, registering a CAGR of 12.7%, the highest during the forecast period. The global insect‑based animal feed market is increasingly driven by towards increased demand of viable protein solutions that live up to the pillars of the circular economy. For instance, in July 2024, Innovafeed finished a five-fold Nesle plant expansion, which made the production of low-carbon black soldier fly larvae to satisfy market demand much higher. This growth reinforces supply, and more extensive use of animal feeds that are environmentally friendly.
In addition, governmental encouragement and regulatory systems significantly help the insect-based animal feed sector, such as the authorization to use insect protein in animal feed, financial support of projects in the circular economy, and financial incentives to encourage environmentally friendly farming methods. For instance, the EU (EU) 2021/1372 processed insect proteins in a poultry and pig feed authorises reduce regulation obstacles. These actions will speed up the uptake of the market, increase investor trust, and scale the production of sustainable feeds based on insects more quickly in Europe.
“Key Driver, Restraint, and Growth Opportunity Shaping the Global Insect-Based Animal Feed Market”
The insect-based animal feed market faces regulatory ambiguity on the acceptable substances and safety of the feed grade. Limiting the use of organic waste and lack of uniformity in regulations between regions make compliance more complex, reduce the flexibility of raw materials, and increase the cost of production. The fragmentation in regulations delays market growth and discourages new investments.
The insect-based animal feed market presents opportunities due to the waste valorization agreements with agribusiness companies and food processors, which can transform the by-products and organic waste into insect feedstock. Companies such as the Innovafeed take advantage of adjacent grain-processing plants to gain access to substrates at low costs and have a steady supply. This circular design that helps to increase sustainability, reduce environmental impact and increase the resilience of the supply chain. Strategic feedstock relationships lower the expenses, improve sustainability and stimulate scalable market development.
