Report Overview

Increased pork production and growing demand for high-quality pork meat are expected to drive Europe Swine Feed Market at a steady growth rate during the forecast period between 2022 and 2028.

Europe Swine Feed Market - Industry Trends & Forecast Report, 2028

Europe swine feed market size is projected to grow at a CAGR of 5.2% during the forecast period between 2022 and 2028. The growing demand for high-quality pork in the region is driving the Europe swine feed market. Aside from that, advancements in the meat processing industry are increasing the demand for high-quality meat products, boosting the market growth. Furthermore, as pig farmers become more aware of the importance of maintaining a healthy pig diet, they have begun to use compound feeds. There has been an increase in demand for healthy and functional swine feed to prevent the spread of epizootic diseases. Furthermore, manufacturers are regularly testing new ingredients and feed formulas to create innovative and efficient swine feed variants, which is driving the market growth. Rapid urbanization, changing consumer lifestyles, and rising demand for organic meat are some of the other major factors expected to drive the growth of Europe swine feed market during the period in analysis.

Europe Swine Feed Market – Overview

Swine feed refers to a variety of foods that are fed to pigs that have been processed, partially processed, or raw. These food items include vital nutrients that support the preservation of pigs' health and well-being. Raw materials, such as corn, soybeans, and wheat-based ingredients are used in their production. Additionally, they include various zootechnical, sensory, and nutritive feed additives. Swine feed gives pigs a nourishing diet, which improves the flavor and texture of the pork. The production of swine feed has been made easier in Europe due to technological advancements that have decreased processing costs.

Europe Swine Feed Market

Growth Drivers

Rise in pork production

After China, the European Union is the largest producer of pork in the world and the largest exporter of pork and pork-related goods. Germany, Spain, and France are the main pork producing countries, and together they account for half of the total production in the area. 13% of the European Union's total production is exported. Production is expected to stay constant due to expanding exports. According to the most recent outlook provided by the European Commission, Europe is best positioned to benefit from China's increased demand for pork. According to ITC Trade Map, the export value of swine meat increased from USD 4.4 billion in 2018 to USD 5.0 billion in 2019. With this trend, it has become crucial to increase yield, which can be done by feeding nutrient-enriched feed. As a result, there will be an increasing demand for swine feed in Europe.

Rising demand for high-quality animal protein

The livestock industry has come under increasing pressure to meet the rising demand for meat and high-value animal protein. Population growth, rising incomes in developing countries, and urbanization have all contributed to an increase in Europe livestock production. With increased public awareness of the importance of protein-rich diets, consumption of animal protein sources is expected to rise. It, in turn, is expected to fuel the market growth through the use of high-quality swine feed, as pork is one of the most popular and widely consumed meats worldwide, particularly in Europe and Southeast Asia.

Restraints

Volatile feed prices

It is anticipated that the growth of the swine feed market will be constrained by the fluctuating prices of raw materials used for swine feed. The Russia and Ukraine war disrupted the global food supply chain. As a result, the food prices have increased at a high rate. It also affected the prices of main ingredients in the swine feed. Other significant factors that are anticipated to restrain market growth include rising extraction process costs and strict regulations for the disposal of waste biomaterials.

Challenges

Russia and Ukraine war severely affecting supply of major ingredients

Europe swine feed market is adversely affected by the ongoing war between Russia and Ukraine, the world’s two largest producers and suppliers of grains. Hence, the further intensity of the war is feared to trigger the global food crisis. According to UN FAO reports, Russia and Ukraine together held a significant share of 34% in global exports of wheat in 2021. Especially, in the global exports of sunflower cake, both the countries had whopping 81% share. Ukraine and Russia held a combined significant market share in the global exports in maize, barley, sunflower oil, and vegetable oils as well. The report also estimated that Russia and Ukraine supplied about 12% of food calories traded across the globe in 2021.

Ukraine, in particular, is popularly known as the breadbasket of Europe, as the country is the region’s major source of wheat. Since the Russian invasion of Ukraine on February 24, 2022, there have been uncertainties over the supply of grains both from Ukraine and Russia to the world, and to Europe in particular. It has resulted in a significant rise in global food prices. Due to spike in grain prices combined with new wave of animal diseases (including avian influenza), the European Feed Manufacturers' Federation (FEFAC) anticipates more than 4% decline in the production of swine feed in 2022 over the previous year. Consequently, the continuous conflict between Ukraine and Russia is anticipated to affect the growth of Europe swine feed market.

Impact of COVID-19 on Europe Swine Feed Market

The stringent lockdown measures in major European countries, such as Germany, Italy, and the UK, slowed the growth of the animal feed market in Europe during the COVID-19 pandemic. Most countries implemented lockdowns or transportation restrictions, which negatively affected the production as fewer workers were present. The primary factor affecting the market for swine feed was the disruption of the supply chain. China is a significant producer and exporter of swine feed, and during the COVID-19 outbreak, when businesses were closed for the Lunar New Year, it accumulated large quantities of products, enough for two to three months' worth of supply. Additionally, because of logistical problems, the supply of containers and vessels as well as the transportation of some micro-ingredients was also negatively impacted.

Segmental Coverage

Europe Swine Feed Market – By Ingredients

By ingredients, Europe swine feed market is categorized into Cereals, Oil Seed Meal, Oils, Molasses, and other segments. Although cracked, rolled, or soaked cereal grains can be used as a good source of feed for pigs, they are the best ingredient for swine feed. Maize, wheat, barley, and lupins are the main ingredients used by the European pig industry, but other grains, such as peas, canola meal, and triticale, are also used. Energy comes from cereal grains, their byproducts, root crops, fats, sugar byproducts, or a variety of fruits. Heat is the only processing step necessary to make cereal starch suitable for human consumption. Utilizing cereals with higher preference values could help create feeds that are more palatable and increase piglets' feed intake during crucial periods like weaning. Given their widespread use and usefulness, cereal feed ingredients could maintain their dominance in Europe swine feed market during the forecast period.
