然而,限制其廣泛應用的一項主要技術挑戰是益生菌菌株在高溫飼料加工和儲存過程中固有的不穩定性,這會降低微生物的功效。為了說明其與現有系統整合的潛在規模,歐洲飼料工業協會(FEFAC)預測,到2024年,歐盟27個成員國的工業複合飼料產量將達到1.47億噸。如此龐大的產量凸顯了對能夠承受嚴苛工業生產條件的穩健型益生菌技術的迫切需求。
抗生素生長促進劑(AGP)的監管限制是推動動物飼料中益生菌應用的主要動力。隨著全球範圍內為應對抗生素抗藥性而實施更嚴格的禁令,生產者被迫引入天然來源的替代品,以在不使用藥物的情況下維持牲畜健康。這種監管壓力有效地將行業標準從治療性腸道健康管理轉向預防性腸道健康管理,使益生菌成為符合監管要求和控制病原體的重要工具。這些政策的影響在降低藥物依賴性方面顯而易見。根據世界動物衛生組織(OIE)2025年5月發布的《獸用抗菌藥物年度報告》,2020年至2022年全球獸用抗菌藥物的使用量下降了5%,顯示生產系統正朝著無抗生素方向發生決定性轉變。
同時,全球對優質動物性蛋白質的需求不斷成長,促使人們需要提高飼料轉換率和產量,以進一步加速市場滲透。益生菌正被擴大用於最佳化營養吸收、降低飼料成本和提高生長速度,以確保畜牧生產者能夠永續滿足不斷成長的消費需求。根據經合組織-聯合國糧農組織於2025年7月發布的《2025-2034年農業展望》,預計到2034年,全球肉類產量將達到3.758億噸,凸顯了所需生產規模的巨大。為了支持這一成長,領先的生產商正在擴大其營運規模。例如,Novonesys公司報告稱,其行星健康生物解決方案部門在2024年全年實現了9%的內部成長,凸顯了生物基農業技術背後強勁的商業性勢頭。
益生菌菌株在高溫生產和儲存過程中的不穩定性是阻礙因素。工業飼料加工方法,特別是製粒工藝,通常涉及高溫處理,這會顯著降低活微生物的存活率。如果這些添加劑在食用前失去效力,就無法達到預期的促進健康和生長效果,導致畜牧養殖戶的生產結果不穩定。這種不確定性對飼料生產者而言構成財務風險,使他們不願意將益生菌添加到標準商業飼料中,因為他們優先考慮的是能夠保證整個供應鏈穩定性的原料。
這些技術限制的嚴重性在大規模工業化飼料加工中體現得淋漓盡致。根據Alltek發布的《2024年農業食品展望》,2023年全球複合飼料產量達12.9億噸。由於大部分生產過程都涉及熱處理,標準益生菌菌株無法耐受這些條件,限制了其市場佔有率。因此,生產商傾向於選擇更穩定的替代品,並常常放棄使用這些添加劑,這直接阻礙了益生菌在全球動物飼料產業的應用。
益生菌在水產養殖領域的應用日益廣泛,正在改變市場格局。為了確保水產動物的抗病能力,生產者正積極從化學療法轉向功能性飼料解決方案。與陸基畜牧業中已成熟的益生菌應用不同,水產養殖領域目前正快速發展,尤其是在高密度養殖中,引入特定菌株用於水質管理和腸道健康促進。製造商不斷證明添加劑的有效性,從而加速了這一轉變,這些添加劑旨在減少對藥物的依賴。例如,根據Skretting公司於2025年6月發布的《2024年影響報告》,該公司自2021年以來已將非必要抗菌劑的使用量減少了53%,這表明預防性健康策略的商業性實施取得了成功。
同時,寵物營養管理中益生菌的優質化正成為高附加價值趨勢。這源自於「寵物人性化」的概念,即寵物飼主要求寵物擁有與人類相似的功能性成分,這與最佳化畜牧業生產力有所不同。其特點是透過專業的微生物組解決方案來延長犬貓的壽命並改善其消化系統健康。各大品牌正積極將先進的益生菌混合物添加到零售寵物食品中,以滿足消費者的需求。 ADM發布的《2024年寵物及動物健康市場洞察報告》(2024年9月發布)也印證了這項需求,該報告發現,71%的美國寵物飼主至少購買過一次益生元、益生菌或後生元產品,這表明微生物組相關產品具有大規模的商業性潛力。
The Global Probiotics in Animal Feed Market is projected to grow from USD 4.71 Billion in 2025 to USD 7.45 Billion by 2031, registering a CAGR of 7.94%. Defined as viable microorganisms added to livestock diets, probiotics are designed to optimize intestinal microbial balance, thereby enhancing host health and growth performance. The market is primarily driven by strict global restrictions on antibiotic growth promoters (AGPs), which create a need for effective natural alternatives, and the rising global demand for animal protein that necessitates improved feed conversion ratios. These fundamental drivers operate independently of evolving trends such as the shift toward multi-strain formulations or water-soluble delivery systems.

However, a significant technical hurdle limiting wider adoption is the inherent instability of probiotic strains during high-temperature feed processing and storage, which can reduce microbial efficacy. To demonstrate the scale of potential integration within existing systems, the European Feed Manufacturers' Federation (FEFAC) projected that industrial compound feed production in the EU27 would reach 147 million tonnes in 2024. This substantial production volume highlights the critical need for robust probiotic technologies capable of withstanding rigorous industrial manufacturing conditions.
Market Driver
Regulatory restrictions on antibiotic growth promoters (AGPs) serve as the primary catalyst for the adoption of probiotics in animal feed. As governments worldwide enforce stricter bans to combat antimicrobial resistance, producers are compelled to integrate natural alternatives that maintain herd health without medicinal interventions. This regulatory pressure effectively shifts the industry standard from curative to preventative gut health management, positioning probiotics as essential tools for compliance and pathogen control. The impact of these policies is evident in the reduction of drug dependency; according to the World Organisation for Animal Health's May 2025 'Annual Report on Antimicrobial Agents Intended for Use in Animals', global antimicrobial use in animals decreased by 5% between 2020 and 2022, signaling a decisive transition toward non-antibiotic production systems.
Simultaneously, the rising global demand for high-quality animal protein necessitates improved feed efficiency and production yields, further driving market penetration. Probiotics are increasingly utilized to optimize nutrient absorption, reduce feed costs, and enhance growth rates, ensuring that livestock producers can meet intensifying consumption needs sustainably. According to the OECD and FAO's 'OECD-FAO Agricultural Outlook 2025-2034' released in July 2025, global meat production is predicted to reach 375.8 million tonnes by 2034, underscoring the immense scale of output required. To support this expansion, leading manufacturers are scaling operations; for instance, Novonesis reported a 9% organic sales growth in its Planetary Health Biosolutions division for the full year 2024, highlighting the robust commercial momentum behind bio-based agricultural technologies.
Market Challenge
The inherent instability of probiotic strains during high-temperature manufacturing and storage serves as a primary restraint on market growth. Industrial feed processing methods, particularly pelleting, frequently utilize elevated temperatures that can significantly reduce the viability of living microorganisms. When these additives lose potency prior to consumption, they fail to deliver the intended health and growth benefits, leading to inconsistent performance results for livestock producers. This unpredictability creates financial risk and reluctance among feed manufacturers to integrate probiotics into standard commercial diets, as they prioritize ingredients that guarantee stability throughout the supply chain.
The magnitude of this technical limitation is highlighted by the immense scale of feed that undergoes industrial processing. According to the Alltech 2024 Agri-Food Outlook, global compound feed production volume reached 1.29 billion metric tons in 2023. As a vast majority of this production involves heat-intensive processes, the inability of standard probiotic strains to withstand such conditions limits their addressable market share. Consequently, manufacturers often forego these additives in favor of more stable alternatives, directly hampering the broader adoption of probiotics in the global animal feed sector.
Market Trends
The expansion of probiotic applications in aquaculture is reshaping the market as producers aggressively replace chemical therapeutics with functional feed solutions to ensure disease resistance. Unlike terrestrial livestock where probiotics are established, the aquatic sector is currently witnessing a rapid integration of specific bacterial strains to manage water quality and enhance gut health in high-density farming. This transition is accelerated by manufacturers validating these additives to reduce medicinal dependency. For instance, according to Skretting's 'Impact Report 2024' from June 2025, the company achieved a 53% decrease in the use of non-critically important antimicrobials since 2021, underscoring the successful commercial implementation of preventative health strategies.
Simultaneously, the premiumization of probiotics for companion animal nutrition has emerged as a high-value trend, driven by "pet humanization" where owners demand human-grade functional ingredients. This trend diverts from livestock yield optimization, centering on longevity and digestive wellness for dogs and cats through specialized microbiome solutions. Brands are increasingly incorporating sophisticated biotic blends into retail pet foods to align with consumer awareness. Validating this demand, according to ADM's '2024 Pet and Animal Wellbeing Market Insights Report' from September 2024, 71% of U.S. pet owners have purchased prebiotics, probiotics, or postbiotics for their pets at least once, reflecting the massive commercial potential of microbiome-focused products.
