사료용 종자 시장 : 제품별, 가축별, 품종별, 지역별(2025-2033년)

The global forage seed market size reached USD 20.4 Billion in 2024. Looking forward, IMARC Group expects the market to reach USD 41.1 Billion by 2033, exhibiting a growth rate (CAGR) of 7.7% during 2025-2033. The growing number of supportive policies and subsidies to promote forage seed cultivation is driving the market demand. This, coupled with the rising adoption of precision techniques to manage soil health, water usage, and crop development and increasing investment in research and development (R&D) to produce better quality seeds, is impelling the market growth.

Forage seeds are specifically grown to feed livestock, such as cattle, horses, and sheep, to provide animals with a balanced and nutritious diet. These seeds are a rich source of protein, fiber, and other essential nutrients necessary for proper animal growth and development. As a result, they are widely used across the livestock industry to ensure the health and well-being of animals. In addition to this, forage legumes can also help improve soil fertility and prevent erosion. A wide variety of forage seeds is available in the market, each with unique characteristics and benefits. Some of the standard product variants include alfalfa, clover, ryegrass, and fescue. They can be planted alone or in combination with other forage crops to provide a diverse and balanced diet for livestock.

Forage Seed Market Trends:

The growing demand for animal protein and meat products due to the rising population, urbanization, and inflating disposable income of individuals represents the key factor driving the market growth. Besides this, the bolstering growth of the livestock industry, the surging number of poultry and animal farms, the increasing demand for organic and high-nutritional animal feeds, and the escalating consumer awareness regarding livestock nutrition are creating a favorable outlook for the market. Moreover, shifting consumer preference for sustainable agriculture practices, which includes using forage crops to improve soil health and reduce the use of chemical fertilizers due to expanding concerns regarding the environmental impact of agriculture, is acting as another significant growth-inducing factor. In addition to this, innovative technological advancements, such as the development of genetically modified forage crops to increase yields, improve disease resistance, and enhance nutritional value, are presenting remunerative growth opportunities for the market. Concurrent with this, the introduction of precision agriculture techniques, such as global positioning system (GPS) mapping and variable rate technology, to improve the efficiency of forage seed production are contributing to the market growth. Furthermore, the surging use of forage crops, such as switchgrass and miscanthus, in biofuels and the widespread adoption of clover and alfalfa in landscaping applications due to their ability to fix nitrogen in the soil and improve soil health are positively impacting the market growth.
