Growth is supported by regulatory shifts that limit the use of antibiotics in animal nutrition, encouraging producers to adopt alternative health management approaches. Feed manufacturers increasingly rely on nutrition-based solutions that support gut balance and overall animal performance. Probiotics have become an integral part of this transition as microbiome-focused ingredients that enhance health outcomes without relying on medically important compounds. Even modest adoption levels have a significant impact due to the sheer scale of global feed production. Market acceptance is reinforced by consistent performance improvements observed across production systems, including better growth efficiency, reduced disease pressure, and improved output quality. These benefits align probiotics with preventive animal health strategies rather than reactive treatment models. Sustainability considerations further strengthen demand, as probiotics support improved nutrient utilization and contribute to lower environmental impact, helping producers meet climate commitments and evolving sourcing standards.
The bacillus-based probiotics segment held a 25.5% share in 2025 and is expected to grow at a CAGR of 6.6% through 2035. Their stability under high processing temperatures and challenging storage conditions supports widespread use in commercial feed manufacturing. These characteristics make them a reliable solution for maintaining digestive balance and enzyme activity under production stress.
The powder and dry formulations segment held 38.8% share in 2025 and is forecast to grow at a CAGR of 6.2% from 2026 to 2035. Their ease of handling, uniform blending, long shelf life, and cost efficiency continue to drive adoption across large-scale feed operations.
