In this report, the Poultry Feed Market has been segmented by Animal Type, Ingredient, Nature, Form, and Geography.

Poultry Feed Market, Segmentation by Animal Type

The Poultry Feed Market has been segmented by Animal Type into Layer, Broiler, Turkey and Others.

Layer

The layer segment holds approximately 35% of the poultry feed market, driven by the demand for high-yield egg production. These birds require feed rich in calcium, vitamins, and proteins to maintain optimal laying performance and shell quality.

Broiler

Broilers dominate the market with a share exceeding 45%, owing to the global demand for fast-growing meat-producing birds. Their feed is formulated with high-energy content, essential amino acids, and digestive enhancers to promote rapid weight gain and feed efficiency.

Turkey

Turkey feed accounts for nearly 12% of the market and is tailored to support the bird's longer growth cycle and larger body mass. Formulations include balanced protein and energy levels to ensure proper development and muscle accretion.

Others

The others segment comprises specialty poultry such as ducks, quail, and geese, holding roughly 8% of the market. Feed in this category is species-specific and designed to address unique nutritional requirements, fostering niche market growth.

Poultry Feed Market, Segmentation by Ingredient

The Poultry Feed Market has been segmented by Ingredient into Cereal, Oilseed Meal, Molasses, Fish Oil and Fish Meal, Supplements and Others.

Cereal

Cereals represent the largest share of the poultry feed market at approximately 45%. Ingredients such as corn, wheat, and barley provide essential carbohydrates for energy, supporting the rapid growth and metabolism of poultry birds.

Oilseed Meal

Oilseed meals, including soybean and canola meal, account for nearly 28% of the market. These are rich in protein and critical amino acids, promoting muscle development and efficient feed conversion, especially in broilers and turkeys.

Molasses

Molasses contributes around 7% of the poultry feed ingredient mix. It enhances palatability and serves as a source of readily digestible sugars, providing quick energy and improving feed intake consistency.

Fish Oil and Fish Meal

This segment comprises approximately 5% of the market, offering a rich source of omega-3 fatty acids and high-quality protein. It supports immune function, reproductive health, and growth performance in poultry.

Supplements

Supplements hold about 10% of the market and include vitamins, minerals, enzymes, and probiotics. These additives enhance gut health, improve nutrient absorption, and contribute to overall bird performance.

Others

The remaining 5% includes ingredients such as animal by-products and specialty additives. These components are often used in customized formulations to meet specific nutritional needs and improve feed efficiency in niche poultry categories.

Poultry Feed Market, Segmentation by Nature

The Poultry Feed Market has been segmented by Nature into Organic, and Conventional.

Organic

The organic segment accounts for approximately 18% of the poultry feed market and is gaining momentum due to the rising demand for chemical-free, non-GMO feed. It supports sustainable farming practices and appeals to health-conscious consumers seeking antibiotic-free poultry products.

Conventional

Conventional poultry feed holds the dominant share at nearly 82%, driven by its cost-effectiveness and wide availability. It typically includes commercially grown grains and synthetic additives, ensuring consistent nutrition and supporting high-volume poultry production.

Poultry Feed Market, Segmentation by Form

The Poultry Feed Market has been segmented by Form into Mash, Pallet, and Crumble.

Mash

Mash feed holds around 25% of the poultry feed market and is especially preferred for younger chicks due to its easy digestibility. This finely ground form ensures uniform nutrient distribution and promotes healthy early-stage growth in poultry.

Pallet

Palleted feed dominates the market with a share of approximately 60%. Its compressed form improves feed efficiency, reduces feed waste, and enhances nutrient intake, making it highly suitable for broilers and layers during their main growth cycle.

Crumble

Crumble feed makes up nearly 15% of the market and is widely used during the transition phase between mash and pellet feeding. It offers a coarser texture that promotes better feed conversion while being easy for birds to consume.

Poultry Feed Market, Segmentation by Geography

In this report, the Poultry Feed Market has been segmented by Geography into five regions; North America, Europe, Asia Pacific, Middle East and Africa and Latin America.

Poultry Feed Market Share (%), by Geographical Region

North America

North America holds a significant share of about 21% in the poultry feed market, driven by its advanced livestock practices and high consumption of poultry meat. The region emphasizes nutritional precision and feed safety standards, especially in the U.S.

Europe
