MARKET ANALYSIS
Corn and wheat-based feed products include corn gluten meal, corn gluten feed, whole corn kernels, corn distillers grains, wheat gluten, wheat bran, wheat pollard, wheat distillers grains, and other products. In terms of revenue, corn gluten meal held a significant share of the corn and wheat-based feed market in 2022. Corn gluten meal is the byproduct of ethanol and corn starch manufacturing process. It is one of the significant sources of energy and protein for livestock animals, including aquatic animals, supplying more than 65% of the crude protein. In manufacturing corn starch, the corn kernels are cleaned, and the foreign materials are removed. The kernels are steeped in water containing sulfur dioxide for 24–40 hours at 48 to 52 ?, which weakens the gluten matrix. After steeping, the corn kernels are coarsely ground to separate the endosperm to obtain corn germ oil. The endosperm undergoes further screening that separates fiber from gluten and starch slurry. The fiber-free endosperm undergoes centrifugation, which separates starch from gluten, resulting in 99% pure corn starch and corn gluten meal. Corn gluten meal is available as dry and wet feed. Due to its high-protein and low-fiber content, corn gluten meal is widely replacing fishmeal in aquatic animals’ diets. The rising demand for corn gluten meal in livestock feed due to high energy and protein content drives the market growth. Further, rising preference for organic corn and wheat-based feed is one of the emerging corn and wheat-based feed market trends owing to the rising popularity of organic feed over conventional feed as organic feed is free from pesticides, chemical fertilizers, and genetically modified organisms (GMOs).
GROWTH DRIVERS AND CHALLENGES
Corn and wheat are considered important protein and energy sources in animal feed. Corn-based feed is a high-energy food that provides animals with essential nutrients such as protein, fats, and carbohydrates. The feed is easily digestible. Corn fibers help reduce the cholesterol level and enhance the digestive health of animals. It is a major source of Vitamin A. Owing to the mentioned benefits, corn-based feed improves meat quality and aids milk production among cows and sheep.
Wheat is one of the cereals used to make animal feed with the highest protein content. Wheat has a high energy value with 3.0 to 3.5 Mcal ME (Megacalories of Metabolizable Energy), considered an important energy source in animal feed. Wheat-based feed is mainly used for polygastric animals such as ruminants. Wheat bran is an important source of minerals such as selenium, zinc, iodine, and potassium, which helps in multiple physiological functions such as the immune system. Wheat has a large amount of fiber that facilitates animal digestive processes. Further, wheat has moisture values below 14%; it aids in avoiding problems related to digestibility and contamination by mycotoxin-producing fungi. Such nutritional benefits influence livestock owners to prefer corn and wheat-based feed to maintain or enhance the health of animals. Thus, the benefits associated with corn and wheat-based feed boost the corn and wheat-based feed market growth.
On the other hand, the price sensitivity among livestock owners negatively impacts the demand for corn and wheat-based feed products as the prices can fluctuate according to the weather conditions. The prices of wheat have fluctuated in 2021 due to the adverse weather conditions in the wheat producing countries. For instance, droughts in Canada have affected part of the wheat production, and the rainy season in France affected wheat production. China is a major importer of wheat. In September 2021, China reduced imports compared to the same period last year, owing to the high prices recorded. Additionally, Brazil and Argentina—two major corn and wheat producing countries—have decreased their wheat production capacity due to unfavorable weather conditions. Thus, challenges associated with the production of wheat and corn hamper the corn and wheat-based feed market growth worldwide. Also, the fluctuating raw material prices due to external factors such as extreme weather conditions negatively impact the market growth.
With the rising sustainability concerns, aquaculture farmers are significantly replacing animal-sourced feed with plant-sourced feed. Thus, the demand for wheat and corn-based feed is increasing due to their high quality and nutritional performance. Roquette Frères, a key market player in the corn and wheat-based feed market, offers wheat-based feed for aquaculture. Thus, the growth of aquaculture is expected to create massive opportunities in the corn and wheat-based feed market across the world in the coming years. Thus, the rising demand for corn and wheat-based feed for aquaculture feed is expected to provide lucrative opportunities in the corn and wheat-based feed market during the forecast period.

REGIONAL ANALYSIS
The global corn and wheat-based feed market report provides a detailed overview of the market with respect to five major regions—North America, Europe, Asia Pacific (APAC), the Middle East & Africa (MEA), and South & Central America. In terms of revenue, Asia Pacific dominated the corn and wheat-based feed market share, accounting for US$ 74,751.60 million in 2022. South & Central America is projected to register a significant CAGR of 5.1% from 2022 to 2030.
The corn and wheat-based feed market in South & Central America is experiencing growth due to the expansion of the livestock industry in response to growing domestic and international demand for meat products. Corn and wheat-based feed are preferred due to their nutritional value and cost-effectiveness. In South & Central America, Brazil and Argentina are major beef, poultry, and pork exporters. Paraná, a Brazilian state, exported 2.3 million metric ton of meat in 2023, an increase of 9.5% compared to last year, with a prominent increase seen in poultry shipments. Animal protein is the primary commodity transported by the Paraná terminal. Of the total exported in 2023, nearly 181,878 twenty-foot equivalent units (TEUs) were chicken meat, 37,169 twenty-foot equivalent units (TEUs) were beef, and 14,369 twenty-foot equivalent units (TEUs) were pork. Thus, the expanding livestock sector drives the demand for animal feed.
South & Central America’s rich agricultural resources and favorable climatic conditions make it well-suited for grain production. The region is a significant producer of corn and wheat. Countries such as Brazil, Argentina, and Paraguay are significant exporters of these commodities. For instance, Brazil produced 116 million metric ton of corn in 2021–2022. Argentina is also a significant corn producer and exporter. Its 2021–2022 corn production was 49.50 million metric tons. The availability of vast tracts of arable land and abundant water resources allows for the cultivation of large-scale grain crops. This abundance of locally produced corn and wheat provides a competitive advantage for the livestock industry, as feed manufacturers can source these grains domestically, reducing dependence on imports and ensuring a steady supply to meet the growing demand for feed.
