Rising Number of Zoonotic Infections to Take Animal Healthcare Market Forward

Animal healthcare market is expected to reach $42,926.7 million by 2023, according to P&S Intelligence.

The growth in the market can be attributed to the increasing consumption of milk and meat, rising adoption of companion animals, and increasing prevalence of food-borne zoonotic diseases.

Insights into the market segments

Based on product, the market is classified into feed additives, vaccines, anti-infectives, anti-inflammatories, parasiticides, and others, wherein “others” include oncological and antiemetic products, drugs for reproductive problems, and sedatives for pain relief. Among these, the category of feed additives held the largest share in the animal healthcare market in 2017. Increasing consumption of animal-derived products and rising feed production are the key factors driving the market growth of this category.

Based on animal type, the animal healthcare market is categorized into farm animals and companion animals. Of these, farm animals held a larger revenue share, of over 55%, in the market in 2017. This can be majorly attributed to the increasing adoption of farm animals to fulfil the demand for animal-based food products across the globe.

According to Animal Matters, a volunteer-run organization promoting animal welfare, approximately 70 billion farm animals are reared for food every year, globally. Further, in the U.S., an estimated 2.2 million sheep and lambs and 1.5 million goats are slaughtered for meat every year.

Based on distribution channel, the market is classified into veterinary hospitals, veterinary clinics, pharmacies and drug stores, and others, wherein “others” include online and retail stores. Of these, veterinary hospitals held the largest share in the global animal healthcare market in 2017. As compared to veterinary clinics, veterinary hospitals provide complete animal healthcare services for animals, including accommodation and nursing care, due to which a large number of pet owners prefer taking their animals to these hospitals.

Increasing prevalence of food-borne zoonotic diseases has raised concerns among farm owners and pet owners over animal healthcare. Brucellosis (a type of bacterial infection), which causes stillbirth or abortion in animals, is increasing especially in the U.S. The bacterial infection generally affects goats and livestock animals, such as cows and sheep. According to the European Food Safety Authority (EFSA), about 320,000 cases of food-borne zoonotic diseases are registered every year in the European Union. Thus, players in the animal healthcare market are increasingly focusing on the development of medicines to help prevent the spread of food-borne zoonotic diseases.
