MARKET GROWTH EXPECTATIONS The global market size of amino acids used in all fields, including animal feed, exceeds 10 million Research And Markets' report titled "Feed Amino Acids - A Global Market Overview" draws attention to the fact that poultry feeds are the largest use of amino acids. According to that report, poultry feed constitutes the largest consumer of feed amino acids globally with 2020 consumption volume share of 44.4%, which is slated to compound annually at 6.5% over 2020-2026 in reaching a projected 3.3 million metric tons by 2026.
