Feed Yeast Market Size was valued at USD 1.54 billion in 2023. The Feed Yeast Market industry is anticipated to grow from USD 1.63 billion in 2024 to USD 2.68 billion by 2032, exhibiting a CAGR of 6.42% during the forecast period (2024 - 2032).
Yeast is eukaryotic single-celled microorganism of kingdom fungi. Herbivorous animals need microbiota in their digestive tract to digest plant-based foods. Yeast is one of the significant microbe additives in the feed of livestock, which helps in the digestive process of livestock animals, mainly in ruminants. Active yeast containing products are found to stimulate the beneficial microflora in cattle, which influences the growth of animals. Feed yeast helps to increase nitrogen utilization and reduce acidosis in animals. Yeast is also being used extensively as a source of clean protein in meat products. These factors are driving the growth of global market. Feed yeast is also used in porcine feeds to reduce the occurrence of diarrhea and increase immunoglobulins in sow milk.
Moreover, raising awareness about animal health management across the globe is predicted to foster the growth rate of the feed yeast market. Additionally, European Union imposed a ban on the use of antibiotic growth promoters in animal feed, leading to increased dependence on the use of yeast products in animal feed, which is expected to support the growth of global market further. However, increasing competition for necessary raw materials may hamper the growth of the global market.
Recent News:
March 2024: CFG, a biotechnology company headquartered in the United Kingdom, has raised £2.5 million as of March 2024 in order to expedite the commercial introduction of its non-GMO, yeast-derived palm oil substitute by 2025. Considered to be on par with high-oleic palm oil, CFG's commercial product is specifically engineered to function as a substitute ingredient in cosmetics, baked goods, and confectionery. CFG is confident in its ability to introduce its innovative food product to the markets of the United Kingdom and the European Union due to the comparatively lax regulatory framework governing non-GMOs in contrast to genetically modified foods. This substantial investment in CFG was made by the UK venture capital Clean Growth Fund, which supports climate technology companies that combat the climate crisis and reduce carbon emissions. With this investment, the company has raised a total of £13 million. The development of Clean Food Group's proprietary technology platform followed eight years of ground-breaking research into a yeast-based substitute for palm oil.
March 2024: After securing $5 million in a seed round in March 2024, food and biotechnology startup Cultivated Biosciences will advance the development of its yeast-based dairy-free, non-GMO cream with the aim of introducing it to the market in 2025. Cultivated Bioscience will use its newfound capital to expand manufacturing of its yeast-derived creamer, which is utilized in dairy-free products within the food industry. This expansion will be built upon the company's operational and production advancements since its pre-seed round investment of $1.5 in September 2022. Cream made with yeast is designed to replace additives found in conventional dairy-free alternatives, while simultaneously enhancing stability and textural qualities without compromising flavor. Cultivated Bioscience claims that its method, which is derived from a patented oleaginous yeast produced through yeast biomass fermentation, does not seek molecular replication of dairy cream, but rather functional and sensorial parity.
