Lysine Industry

According to a new report by Grand View Research, Inc., the global lysine market is projected to reach a value of USD 2.18 billion by 2030, growing at a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 8.2% from 2024 to 2030. This anticipated growth is largely driven by the rising demand for animal feed, fueled by increasing meat consumption—particularly in emerging economies across Latin America and the Asia Pacific region. As consumer preferences shift toward protein-rich diets and population growth continues in these regions, the demand for high-quality animal nutrition, including lysine-based feed, is expected to rise significantly.

Lysine is an essential amino acid widely used in animal feed to enhance the nutritional value of livestock diets, particularly for pigs and poultry. Among various application segments, animal feed emerged as the dominant sector, accounting for 82.7% of the total market volume in 2023. Not only does this segment hold the largest market share, but it is also projected to be the fastest-growing application area for lysine throughout the forecast period. This trend underscores lysine’s critical role in improving feed efficiency and promoting healthy animal growth, which in turn supports the growing global demand for meat products.

However, despite the positive market outlook, certain challenges may constrain growth. One key concern is the limited availability of major feedstock materials used in lysine production, which could create supply constraints and pricing volatility. These factors are expected to present potential hurdles for manufacturers and may impact market expansion if not addressed through innovation or diversification in raw material sourcing.
