小米市場機會、成長動力、產業趨勢分析及 2025 - 2034 年預測

2024年，全球小米市場規模達153億美元，預計到2034年將以4.4%的複合年成長率成長，達到234億美元。這一成長主要源於消費者對富含纖維和蛋白質的健康無麩質食品日益成長的興趣。隨著人們對小米營養價值的認知不斷提高，小米在現代飲食中的應用也越來越普遍。消費者選擇小米不僅是為了傳統消費，也是為了其在功能性食品、健康飲食和永續飲食實踐中的作用。近年來，小米在許多新應用中佔據了一席之地，尤其是在烘焙食品、零食和飲料領域，它們不僅具有健康益處，還能改善口感和口感。

小米能夠抵禦惡劣的氣候條件，也使其成為水資源匱乏地區的可靠食物來源，這進一步凸顯了其對糧食安全的重要性。加工和產品開發的創新持續推動全球小米消費。隨著永續性在整個糧食體系中日益受到重視，小米正被視為氣候智慧型穀物，是環保飲食的理想選擇。城市市場對永續植物性食品的需求不斷成長，進一步支撐了小米市場的長期發展。

支持性政策框架和製度激勵措施持續推動小米市場發展。全球範圍內的多項小米推廣舉措，大大提升了人們對小米食品產業的認知度，並推動了相關投資。各國政府和農業機構正在透過提供財政支持、打造價值鏈基礎設施以及培育小米產品開發領域的創業精神來鼓勵小米種植。這些措施不僅支持了農民，也有助於簡化分銷流程，拓寬小米產品在國內外市場的准入管道。

依品種分類，珍珠粟在2024年佔據市場主導地位，佔41.1%，市場規模達63億美元。每種小米品種都因其營養成分和對不同飲食的適應性而擁有獨特的價值。有些品種因其高蛋白或高鈣含量而備受青睞，而有些品種則因其在無麩質和純素飲食中的應用而日益受到關注。隨著全球需求持續轉向清潔標籤和防過敏食品，這些穀物在各地區都有強勁的成長機會。

基於自然屬性，到2024年，傳統小米將佔據主導地位，市佔率達89.5%，預計在預測期內將以5.8%的複合年成長率成長。由於價格實惠且易於獲取，此細分市場將繼續吸引更廣泛的消費者群體。然而，有機小米市場也正受到越來越多的關注，尤其是在城市市場，消費者正在尋求無化學成分和環保的食品選擇。政府推廣永續農業的計畫也增強了有機小米的吸引力。儘管有機小米目前的市場佔有率較小，但對清潔營養的需求不斷成長預計將推動其滲透，尤其是在高階零售場所和注重健康的人群中。

按形態細分，全穀物在2024年佔據了39.7%的市場佔有率，由於其營養豐富且加工程度低，依然保持著強勁的市場相關性。小米粉作為無麩質烘焙產品（包括餅乾、麵包和健康零食）的多功能配料，在全球範圍內持續受到歡迎。小米片在早餐穀物和零食棒中越來越受歡迎，反映出市場正與現代便捷消費模式保持一致。隨著飲食習慣的不斷變化，對以小米為基礎的即食和即食產品的需求也在不斷成長，這為製造商提供了在零售貨架上推出多樣化產品線的機會。

B2B 市場正在快速擴張，預計到 2034 年複合年成長率將達到 4.9%。這一成長主要源於食品製造商、機構買家和動物飼料生產商日益成長的需求，他們正將小米作為一種功能性和永續性的原料，廣泛應用於各種應用領域。小米被廣泛應用於包裝食品、學校膳食計劃和自有品牌健康食品中，這為大規​​模採購創造了機會。隨著越來越多的產業利用小米的健康和永續優勢，B2B 市場預計將迎來強勁成長動能。

從區域來看，亞太地區在2024年佔據了最大的收入佔有率，達到34.3%，這得益於高產量和不斷成長的國內消費。由於傳統的種植模式和日益增強的健康意識，該地區仍然是小米的主要產地。城鎮化、收入成長和農業扶持政策不僅推動了小米在傳統飲食中的使用，也推動了其在當代食品創新中的應用。

小米市場的主要參與者正在積極實施策略性舉措，以擴大市場覆蓋範圍並強化品牌定位。領先的公司正在投資產品創新，推出以小米為基礎的即食食品、零食、早餐穀物和無麩質烘焙食品，以滿足不斷變化的消費者偏好。許多公司正在與食品科技新創公司和研究機構合作，開發營養豐富的配方，以延長保存期限並提升口感，同時保留小米的天然益處。與零售連鎖店和電商平台建立策略合作夥伴關係也日益普遍，從而擴大了產品的知名度和消費者覆蓋範圍。

The Global Millets Market was valued at USD 15.3 billion in 2024 and is estimated to grow at a CAGR of 4.4% to reach USD 23.4 billion by 2034. This growth is largely driven by rising consumer interest in healthy, gluten-free foods rich in fiber and protein. With increasing awareness about the nutritional benefits of millets, their inclusion in modern diets is becoming more common. Consumers are turning to millets not just for traditional consumption but also for their role in functional foods, wellness diets, and sustainable food practices. In recent years, millets have found a place in a wide range of new applications, especially in baked goods, snacks, and beverages, where they offer not just health benefits but also improved texture and taste.

Their ability to withstand harsh climatic conditions also makes them a reliable food source in regions with limited water availability, reinforcing their importance for food security. Innovations in processing and product development continue to drive millet consumption globally. As sustainability becomes a stronger focus across food systems, millets are being recognized as climate-smart grains, ideal for environmentally-conscious diets. Growing demand in urban markets for sustainable and plant-based food products further supports the market's long-term trajectory.

Supportive policy frameworks and institutional incentives continue to fuel this market. Several global efforts to promote millet have significantly contributed to building awareness and driving investment in millet-based food industries. Governments and agricultural bodies are encouraging millet cultivation by offering financial support, creating value-chain infrastructure, and fostering entrepreneurship in millet product development. Such measures not only support farmers but also help streamline distribution and widen accessibility for both domestic and international markets.

By type, pearl millet led the market in 2024, holding a share of 41.1%, which equates to a market size of USD 6.3 billion. Each millet variety holds unique value based on its nutrient profile and suitability for different diets. While some are favored for their high protein or calcium content, others are gaining interest for their use in gluten-free and vegan diets. As global demand continues to shift towards clean-label and allergen-friendly foods, these grains are securing strong growth opportunities across regions.

Based on nature, in 2024, conventional millets dominated with an 89.5% share and are expected to grow at a higher CAGR of 5.8% during the forecast period. This segment continues to appeal to a broader consumer base due to affordability and easy availability. However, the organic millet segment is also witnessing increased interest, especially in urban markets where consumers are seeking chemical-free and eco-friendly food options. Government programs that promote sustainable agriculture are also enhancing the appeal of organically produced millets. Although organic millets currently occupy a smaller share, rising demand for clean nutrition is expected to boost their penetration, particularly in premium retail spaces and health-conscious demographics.

When segmented by form, the whole grain accounted for 39.7% of the total market share in 2024, maintaining strong relevance due to its nutritional richness and minimal processing. Millet flour continues to gain popularity globally as a versatile ingredient in gluten-free bakery products, including cookies, breads, and health snacks. Flakes are increasingly favored for breakfast cereals and snack bars, reflecting the market's alignment with modern, convenience-driven consumption patterns. With evolving dietary habits, the demand for millet-based ready-to-cook and ready-to-eat offerings is also rising, providing manufacturers the opportunity to introduce diverse product lines across retail shelves.

The B2B segment is expanding rapidly, with a projected CAGR of 4.9% through 2034. This growth is driven by increased demand from food manufacturers, institutional buyers, and animal feed producers who are integrating millet as a functional and sustainable ingredient in a wide variety of applications. The integration of millets into packaged foods, school meal programs, and private-label health foods is opening up large-scale procurement opportunities. As more industries tap into the health and sustainability benefits of millets, the B2B segment is expected to witness strong momentum.

Regionally, Asia Pacific held the largest revenue share in 2024 at 34.3%, fueled by high production and rising domestic consumption. The region continues to be a stronghold for millets due to historical cultivation patterns and increasing health awareness. Urbanization, rising incomes, and supportive agriculture policies are boosting millet usage not only in traditional diets but also in contemporary food innovations.

Key players in the millets market are actively implementing strategic initiatives to expand their market footprint and strengthen brand positioning. Leading companies are investing in product innovation by launching millet-based ready-to-eat meals, snacks, breakfast cereals, and gluten-free bakery items to cater to evolving consumer preferences. Many are collaborating with food tech startups and research institutions to develop nutrient-dense formulations that enhance shelf life and taste while retaining the grains' natural benefits. Strategic partnerships with retail chains and e-commerce platforms are also becoming common, allowing broader product visibility and consumer reach.
