In 2023, Italy led European nations with 368 processors of organic animal feeds, showing a 4.31% increase from the previous year. Spain and Czech Republic followed, with Spain experiencing a slight decline and Czech Republic increasing by 5.57%. Croatia and Serbia showed significant growth, with respective increases of 31.95% and 43.1%. Notably, the organic feed sector in Hungary surged by 37.97%. Conversely, Bulgaria saw a decline of 11.09%. Other countries demonstrated moderate growth or stability, with nations like Netherlands and Norway remaining unchanged.
Future trends suggest continued interest in expanding organic animal feed processing. Growth could be supported by increasing consumer demand for organic products, regulations promoting sustainable agriculture, and advancements in organic farming techniques. This expansion may particularly benefit countries with significant growth momentum, like Hungary and Serbia, while also pushing slower markets like Bulgaria to adapt to evolving market dynamics.
