Zinc Micronutrient for Animal Feed Market Report and Forecast 2025-2034
Market Report I 2025-07-15 I 172 Pages I EMR Inc.
The global zinc micronutrient for animal feed market was volumed at 64.21 KMT in 2024. The industry is expected to grow at a CAGR of 4.36% during the forecast period of 2025-2034 to attain a volume of 98.39 KMT by 2034.
Animal performance and general well-being are enhanced by zinc. While severe zinc deficiency can cause skin parakeratosis, reduced growth, general debility, increased susceptibility to infection, and lethargy, adding zinc to animal feed can aid in protein synthesis, carbohydrate metabolism, and other biochemical reactions.
Increasing focus on animal health along with the rising demand for protein-rich animal-based food products is increasing the use of zinc micronutrients in animal feed to boost their immunity and promote growth.

Jun 21, 2022
Balchem Corporation announced the completion of its acquisition of Kappa Bioscience AS, headquartered in Oslo, Norway, which is a leading scientific manufacturer of specialised vitamin K2 for the human nutrition industry.
Rising incorporation of premixes
There is a rising incorporation of premixes in animal feed to enhance growth performance and metabolic activities by providing them with a balanced diet. This further aids the demand for zinc micronutrient.
Increasing consumption of animal-based food products
The rising health consciousness and economic growth are increasing the consumption of meat, poultry, and dairy, increasing the addition of zinc in animal feed.
Global increase in consumption of fish
The consumption of fish and sea food is rising, and according to forecasts by the Organisation for Economic Co-operation and Development (OECD), by 2029, 90% of the produced fish will be consumed. This is expected to potentially increase the demand for zinc micronutrient for fish feed.
Nano zinc as an alternative to conventional zinc
Advancements in nanoscience in the field of mineral nutrition and increasing research activities to find optimal nano zinc levels for animal feed rations to provide economic benefits and enhanced performance are increasing the use of nano zinc in animal feed.

Based on species type, poultry dominates the zinc micronutrient for animal feed market share
With the expanding global population and more people living in urban settings, the demand for animal products to meet their food protein requirements is increasing. The meat of poultry such as chicken, ducks, turkeys and geese, and eggs of chicken and ducks are safe and convenient to consume, making them a favoured choice among consumers. The rising poultry production is increasing the use of zinc to improve their immunity, body weight, and eggshell quality.
In aquaculture, various sources of zinc are used, such as nanoparticles, organic, and inorganic, to improve essential enzyme synthesis and metabolism and support the formation of hormones for growth, immunity, and reproduction.

Zinc Micronutrient for Animal Feed Market Analysis by Region
In Europe, countries such as Spain, France, Germany, and Italy are home to a large population of livestock, including pigs, bovine animals, sheep, and goats. Dietary supplementation with trace minerals such as zinc helps regulate critical metabolic pathways and improve immune function, fertility, neonatal survival, feed efficiency, growth, and meat quality.
Countries such as Saudi Arabia, Egypt, Algeria, Morocco, and Bahrain are increasingly using dairy ingredients to produce cheese, confectioneries, chocolates, and bakery goods with the support of sophisticated dairy and meat processing plants to meet the global demand for their products.
In the USA, over 300 varieties of cheese are produced from cow's milk. Using zinc in dairy cattle feed helps improve the milk quality and, consequently, cheese.
