Maximize Market Research, a prominent Food and beverages research firm has released a comprehensive market intelligence report on the Global Dairy Protein Market. The report anticipates that the market will reach a total value of USD 17.49 billion by 2029, with a projected compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 5.8 percent during the forecast period.
Market Overview:
The dairy protein market comprises products derived from farm animals, primarily milk. These products find their way into various dairy items such as yogurt, butter, ice cream, cheese, and more. The market offers different types of proteins, including isolates, concentrates, and caseinates, obtained through the filtration of regular milk.
Market Dynamics:
One of the major driving factors behind the growth of the global dairy protein market is the demand for infant formula, particularly for newborns and babies in the early weaning stages. The pursuit of a healthy diet rich in proteins has also contributed to market growth. Proteins are essential for the development of bones, skin, muscles, and various bodily functions.
However, the dairy protein industry faces a significant challenge related to its environmental impact. Methane gas emissions from dairy animals have raised concerns about climate change, leading to the implementation of regulatory policies in various countries.
Regional Insights:
In 2022, North America dominated the global dairy protein market, a trend expected to continue during the forecast period. The United States and Canada utilize automated milking equipment for commercial dairy farming, which has driven market growth. The Asia-Pacific region is projected to experience the highest CAGR, with India being a major contributor to global milk production. However, India’s export rate for dairy protein products is relatively low, whereas New Zealand, Germany, and the Netherlands are the leading exporters. The United States and China were the primary importers of casein protein in 2022, stimulating market growth.
