Saudi Arabia Alfalfa Hay Market Introduction and Overview
According to SPER Market Research, the Saudi Arabia Alfalfa Hay Market is estimated to reach USD XX million by 2033 with a CAGR of 5.49%.
The report includes an in-depth analysis of the Saudi Arabia Alfalfa Hay Market, including market size and trends, product mix, distribution channels, and supplier analysis. The legume plant Medicago sativa is the source of alfalfa hay, which is highly valued in the animal feed industry because of its high nutritional content. Alfalfa hay, well-known for its high protein content, is also a great source of important nutrients, such as minerals like calcium and phosphorus and vitamins A, D, E, and K. More so than other animals, livestock including horses, cattle, sheep, and goats find it extremely tasty. Alfalfa hay is not only nutrient-dense but also helps with digestive health and gives animals that exercise a lot of energy. Additionally, because of its fibrous nature, which promotes natural chewing behavior, oral health is enhanced.
- November 2021: Alfalfa meals and pellets were imported by Saudi Arabia in an amount of around 171,000 metric tons, up from 14.6 thousand metric tons in 2019. The primary reason for the rise in imports is the nation's prohibition on growing fodder crops.
- November 5, 2018: The Kingdom of Saudi Arabia outlawed the growing of alfalfa and other green fodder crops. By outlawing it, the nation's renewable water supplies will be under less stress. The country's demand for importing alfalfa meals is anticipated to rise as a result, according to the Ministry of Environment, Water, and Agriculture (MEWA).
Market Opportunities and Challenges
Opportunities: The medium-term market expansion is anticipated to be driven by factors such as the increasing demand for high-quality hay for livestock and dairy production, the costs of alfalfa hay, and the health benefits of alfalfa over alternative feeds. In much of Saudi Arabia, livestock products continue to be the preferred cuisine due to their high nutritional content and flavor.
In 2021, Saudi Arabia produced approximately 910,000 metric tons of poultry meat annually, an increase of 13.7% over 2019. Because of the growing need from the meat sector, the market is therefore anticipated to increase significantly in the nation.
Challenges: The severe weather and scarcity of water in Saudi Arabia pose the biggest challenges to the alfalfa hay industry. With water scarce in a place like Saudi Arabia, alfalfa growing requires a lot of water, which makes large-scale production difficult to maintain. As a result, the nation must import a large amount of alfalfa hay to meet its demands, raising worries about food security and reliance on outside sources. Further causing uncertainty for Saudi Arabia's imports of alfalfa hay are shifts in the dynamics of the worldwide market, particularly with regard to commodity prices and availability.
