Key Market Highlights:

Dominant Growth Drivers: The surge in global livestock and poultry production, coupled with a discernible shift towards sustainable and plant-based proteins, are the primary catalysts for the market's upward trajectory. Advanced extraction techniques and the growing preference for non-GMO and organic soybean meal products are further accelerating this growth.

Sectoral Dominance: Soybean meal holds a commanding 48% share within the animal feed market, serving as a critical ingredient for dairy, poultry, and swine feeds. It also plays a notable role in the food and beverage market (6-7% share) through its inclusion in plant-based food products and supplements, and contributes approximately 5% to the biofuels sector, particularly in biodiesel production.

Regional Hotspot: East Asia emerges as a key growth region, with Japan leading the charge as the fastest-growing market at an impressive 5.5% CAGR from 2025 to 2035. This growth in Japan is attributed to high-efficiency livestock farming, sustainable food production initiatives, and alignment with environmental targets. Other significant growth regions include Germany (4.2% CAGR) and the USA (3.8% CAGR), driven by regulatory support and evolving consumer preferences.

Segment Leadership: Conventional soybean meal will maintain its stronghold, commanding 75.3% of the nature segment in 2025, reflecting persistent demand for established, cost-effective solutions. In the product type segment, defatted soybean meal is poised to lead with a 45% market share by 2025, largely due to its high protein content and low-fat concentration, making it ideal for animal feed formulations. The "Feed" application segment will continue to dominate, securing a 48% share, underscoring soybean meal's indispensable role in global animal nutrition.
