Dublin, June 30, 2025 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- The "Lysine Market Size, Share, Trends, Analysis, and Forecast 2025-2034 | Global Industry Growth, Competitive Landscape, Opportunities, and Challenges" has been added to ResearchAndMarkets.com's offering.
The global lysine market is projected to reach USD 11.6 billion by 2025, and USD 21.9 billion by 2034, growing at a CAGR of 7.3%. This market is essential for global animal nutrition and human health, with lysine used as a dietary supplement in livestock feed, particularly for swine and poultry.
The primary source of lysine is corn or sugar fermentation, enhancing protein synthesis, improving feed efficiency, and supporting muscle development. Furthermore, lysine finds applications in pharmaceuticals and food for treating deficiency and boosting immune functions. Dominated by Asia's major players with significant production facilities in China and South Korea, the market focuses on feed optimization, sustainability, and nutritional science advancements.
In 2024, the lysine market experienced steady growth due to increased animal protein consumption, particularly in Asia-Pacific and Latin America. Feed manufacturers optimized lysine formulations to reduce crude protein levels, aligning with environmental regulations by lowering nitrogen emissions. Geopolitical tensions and raw material price volatility led manufacturers to diversify sources and invest in alternative fermentation technologies. Concurrently, the demand for plant-based lysine surged within human nutrition and sports supplements, prompting a focus on traceability and quality assurance. This shift aims to comply with stricter regulatory standards and enhance global export capabilities.
Looking ahead to 2025 and beyond, further innovation in production technologies, such as precision fermentation and bioconversion of agricultural residues, is expected. These innovations will cater to animal welfare regulations and environmental mandates, driving the demand for low-nitrogen, high-efficiency feed formulations. Major consumers like China, India, and Brazil will lead growth due to rising meat exports and livestock farm modernization. In human nutrition, lysine's role will expand in muscle recovery products and immune support within the functional food and personalized health space. AI-powered precision farming and digital feed formulation will also influence lysine demand planning across the value chain.
