The rising consumption of meat is anticipated to drive growth in the poultry feed amino acids market in the future. Meat refers to the edible flesh and parts of various animals. Poultry feed amino acids are utilized to enhance the growth and performance of poultry raised for meat, as well as to increase the breast meat yield in older broilers. For example, in 2024, the Food and Agriculture Organization (FAO), a specialized agency of the United Nations based in Italy, projected that poultry meat consumption would reach 91 million tons by 2032, representing an estimated growth of 15%. Therefore, the increasing consumption of meat is expected to propel the poultry feed amino acids market.

Major companies in the poultry feed amino acids industry are leveraging strategic partnerships to strengthen market presence and offer innovative solutions. Strategic partnerships involve companies combining strengths and resources to achieve mutual benefits. For example, in March 2023, Corteva Inc., a US-based agricultural chemical and seed company, partnered with Bunge Global SA, a US-based agribusiness and food company, to develop amino acid-enriched soybean meal for poultry, swine, and aqua feed. This multi-year collaboration aims to create soybean varieties that provide new value streams for farmers and alternatives to synthetic additives for feed compounders, reducing costs and lowering carbon footprints.

In December 2023, Archer Daniels Midland Company (ADM), a US-based global food processing and agricultural commodities company, acquired PT Trouw Nutrition Indonesia for an undisclosed amount. The acquisition enables ADM to expand its animal nutrition presence in Southeast Asia, enhance production and distribution capabilities, strengthen its supply chain, and support long-term growth in the animal feed and nutrition sector. PT Trouw Nutrition Indonesia is an Indonesia-based company providing feed additives, premixes, and specialized nutritional solutions for livestock and aquaculture.
