Animal Feed Plant Based Protein Isolate Market Summary

The global animal feed plant based protein isolates market size was estimated at USD 2.23 billion in 2024 and is projected to reach USD 3.54 billion by 2030, growing at a CAGR of 8.1% from 2025 to 2030. Animal feed plant protein isolates are highly concentrated protein ingredients derived from plant sources and formulated specifically for use in animal feed. Their growing adoption is driven by the rising need for high-quality, digestible, and cost-effective protein alternatives that support efficient livestock growth and improved feed performance.

These isolates are produced by extracting proteins from sources such as soybeans, peas, lentils, and canola, offering a sustainable and economical substitute for traditional animal-based proteins. Their increasing relevance is closely linked to global food supply challenges. According to the Food and Agriculture Organization, global food demand is expected to grow by 60% by 2050, while animal protein production is projected to expand at an annual rate of 1.7%. More specifically, meat production is anticipated to increase by nearly 70%, aquaculture by 90%, and dairy output by 55%. This rising demand for animal-derived foods is intensifying the need for reliable, scalable, and sustainable feed protein solutions.
