Key Market Indicators
Ethiopian animal feed imports are projected to rise significantly over the next five years. By 2028, imports are expected to reach approximately 3.2 million kilograms, up from around 2.7 million kilograms in 2023. This marks an average annual growth rate of 2.9%. Since the turn of the century, Ethiopia's demand for animal feed has shown robust growth, averaging a 5.1% increase each year. Conversely, the country's animal feed exports have seen a dramatic decline. In 2015, exports fell to 62 kilograms, down from 100 kilograms in 2014, representing a 38% decrease year-on-year. Since 2000, the supply of Ethiopian animal feed for export has plummeted by nearly 75% annually. These figures highlight a growing domestic demand, coupled with a dwindling capacity for export, indicating potential challenges and opportunities in Ethiopia's animal feed industry.
