The growth of Malaysia animal feed market is driven significantly by increasing meat consumption, changing dietary habits, growing focus on gut health and animal immunity, and advancements in sustainable feed technology. Additionally, the adoption of precision farming and the Internet of Things (IoT) by key players has propelled market expansion in the region.
Moreover, artificial intelligence (AI) and automation have been integrated with cattle farming for personalized feed formulation, increased milk production, and improved animal health to satisfy the rising demand for livestock products, reduce labour costs, and achieve 50% self-sufficiency as per the vision 2050 laid down by the government.
As per Malaysia animal feed industry analysis, there is a rising demand for sustainable options in the feed market. The Malaysia Investment Development Authority (MIDA) claims that sorghum and corn cultivation are being practised in dedicated arable land to produce feed for ruminant livestock such as cattle, sheep, goats, and buffalos among others. Additionally, sorghum is a new animal feed alternative in Malaysia as it offers several benefits such as nutritional increase, and high pest resistance, and is a prominent source of protein and energy. Furthermore, it’s a cost-effective option for farmers due to its wide adaptability to different types of soil and short growing seasons as compared to others.
Growing awareness of animal nutrition, increased meat consumption, rising poultry exports, and promotion of alternative feed production are accelerating the overall Malaysia animal feed market value.
The growing awareness of animal nutrition among Malaysian poultry farmers is a key driver for the growth of the animal feed market. Moreover, a preference for high-quality meat and poultry products among the Malaysian population is raising the demand for organic products, which are a healthier and more cost-effective option. Adding to it, several government initiatives and educational campaigns are prompting farmers to opt for scientific methods of feed production and best practices prescribed as per international standards. These efforts are propelling the growth of the high-quality animal feed market in the country.
Increased meat consumption is propelling the growth of the poultry farming sector in Malaysia, thereby raising the demand for animal feed. According to the official data of the OECD, meat consumption, specifically veal and beef, in Malaysia, was estimated at 5.4 kilograms of retail weight per capita in 2023. Further, it was projected to grow to 5.6 kilograms of retail weight per capita until the end of 2024. This growing trend is expected to continue throughout the forecast period, thereby propelling the demand for animal feed in the country.
Rising poultry exports from Malaysia are leading to the growth of the market. The World Bank estimated the total pig and poultry fat exports by the country in 2023 to exceed 52,000 kgs, generating an overall value worth USD 989,000. A major share was accounted for by Hong Kong, China, and Macau. These values are expected to grow in the coming years owing to Malaysia’s proximity to major export markets and its highly developed shipping infrastructure, leading to a further rise in animal feed market revenue.
The Malaysian government is increasingly promoting the production of alternative animal feed to reduce dependency on traditionally used soybeans. For instance, the Malaysian government established an animal feed processing plant based on palm kernel waste in partnership with the private sector in June 2022. Additionally, it also approved Sorghum as a new source of animal feed in the year 2022. Such efforts are expected to continue during the forecast period leading to diversification of the animal feed market.
