Report Description Table of Contents Animal Genetics Market Size & Overview The Animal Genetics Market was valued at USD 6.2 billion in 2024 and is projected to reach around USD 11.3 billion by 2030, expanding at a CAGR of 9.8% during the forecast period. The market growth is fueled by the rising global demand for high-yielding, disease-resistant livestock, increasing focus on food security & sustainable animal farming along with advancements in genetic technologies. Over the next decade, global meat protein consumption is expected to rise by 14% by 2030, primarily fueled by increasing incomes and population growth. Animal Genetics Market Dynamics: Market Drivers The growing global demand for high-performance, disease-resistant & productive livestock is one of the primary drivers of the animal genetics market fueled by rising protein consumption & food security concerns. According to the OECD-FAO Agricultural Outlook 2021-2030, the global meat supply is projected to reach 374 million tons by the year 2030. China is projected to contribute the largest share of the overall rise in meat production, followed by Brazil & the US. By 2030, the availability of beef, poultry, pork, and sheep protein is expected to increase by 5.9%, 17.8%, 13.1% and 15.7%, respectively. Genomic selection has revolutionized livestock breeding, enhancing efficiency with high-density SNP chips, sequencing technologies & automation. Market Restraints The average cost of a single bovine embryo transfer ranges from USD 200 - USD 600. Gene editing procedures using CRISPR or similar tools may exceed USD 1,000 per animal which makes them less accessible for small-scale farmers. According to the Food & Agriculture Organization (FAO), the infrastructure & technical expertise required to support genetic testing such as next-generation sequencing (NGS) or SNP genotyping are often lacking in developing countries, where over 70% of the global livestock population is concentrated. Gene editing in animals remains restricted or heavily regulated in parts of the EU & Latin America, limiting the commercial rollout of genetically modified breeds. These cost, policy & accessibility challenges continue to restrain the broader adoption of animal genetic technologies, particularly outside high-income markets. Market Opportunities The Animal Genetics Market presents significant growth opportunities as the global demand for animal protein continues to rise. This surge is creating strong demand for genetically superior livestock that offer higher productivity, better disease resistance & improved feed efficiency. The growing adoption of artificial insemination highlights the increasing use of reproductive technologies in genetic improvement programs. The rising investment in genomic testing & sequencing technologies is another key opportunity. Increased awareness of antimicrobial resistance is encouraging a shift toward preventive health strategies.
