The rising demand for meat is expected to drive the growth of the agricultural disinfectants market. Meat is a processed product derived from livestock or similar animals. Additionally, some meat products undergo alterations, such as mincing, grinding, chopping, or salting, to ensure customer satisfaction regarding quality. The quality of meat is influenced by the animal's genetic makeup, rearing practices, and nutritional status during production. The need for specific genetic standards in livestock farming has increased the demand for agricultural disinfectants to maintain cleanliness. For instance, in February 2024, according to the United States Department of Agriculture, chicken meat production in the European Union (EU) rose by 0.4 percent in CY 2024, following a 1.65 percent increase in CY 2023. EU chicken meat imports also grew by 2.3 percent in 2023 and continued to rise in 2024. Consequently, the growing demand for high-quality meat products is expected to propel the agricultural disinfectants market.
