Market USP

Rising incidences of livestock diseases

Market Drivers

• Increasing industrial livestock production: Global livestock production accounts for about 40% of the gross value of agricultural production. It has been observed that the livestock population is experiencing rapid growth based on the growing population and changes in consumer lifestyles. According to the United Nations, by 2050, the world’s population will reach about 9.7 billion, and growth in urbanization is expected to accelerate meat products' consumption. Changing consumer preferences and their high inclination towards animal-based protein have increased the global demand for quality foods, such as meat, egg, and milk. Thus, the rise in demand for meat and dairy products has prompted the livestock industry's growth. Due to such growth, there has been a rise in the number of livestock animals, which boosts the demand for animal disinfectants.
