Mycotoxin feed testing involves examining food or feed samples to detect and measure the presence of naturally occurring toxic substances produced by fungi, known as mycotoxins. These toxins can contaminate animal feed and pose health risks to livestock. The objective of mycotoxin feed testing is to ensure the safety and quality of the feed, safeguarding the health of the animals consuming it.
The primary types of mycotoxin feed testing encompass various toxins such as aflatoxins, alternaria, cyclopiazonic acid, citrinin, fusarium toxins, ergot alkaloids, patulin, ochratoxins, sterigmatocystin, and others. For instance, aflatoxins are toxins produced by fungi commonly found on agricultural products such as maize (corn), peanuts, cottonseed, and tree nuts. These tests are conducted on a range of substances including cereals, seeds, seed products, forage, silage, and others. Various technologies such as chromatography, immunoassay, lateral flow assay, spectroscopy, among others, are employed for mycotoxin detection. These testing procedures cater to end-users in industries such as food and beverages, animal feed, and pharmaceuticals, ensuring the safety and quality of their products.
Note that the outlook for this market is being affected by rapid changes in trade relations and tariffs globally. The report will be updated prior to delivery to reflect the latest status, including revised forecasts and quantified impact analysis. The report's Recommendations and Conclusions sections will be updated to give strategies for entities dealing with the fast-moving international environment.
The rapid escalation of U.S. tariffs and the resulting trade tensions in spring 2025 are having a considerable impact on the veterinary healthcare sector, particularly in the supply of pharmaceuticals, medical devices, and animal care products. Increased duties on imported veterinary medicines, diagnostic equipment, surgical tools, and pet care supplies have driven up operational costs for veterinary clinics, animal hospitals, and livestock health providers, forcing them to either raise service charges or absorb reduced profit margins. The livestock and agricultural industries are facing similar pressures, as tariffs on feed additives, vaccines, and breeding equipment push up production costs and complicate animal health management. Furthermore, retaliatory tariffs in major export markets have weakened demand for U.S.-manufactured veterinary products, adding to revenue challenges. To navigate these headwinds, the sector must now focus on local sourcing, preventive healthcare strategies, and digital veterinary solutions to control costs while continuing to deliver quality animal care.
The mycotoxin feed testing market research report is one of a series of new reports from The Business Research Company that provides mycotoxin feed testing market statistics, including mycotoxin feed testing industry global market size, regional shares, competitors with a mycotoxin feed testing market share, detailed mycotoxin feed testing market segments, market trends and opportunities, and any further data you may need to thrive in the mycotoxin feed testing industry. This mycotoxin feed testing market research report delivers a complete perspective of everything you need, with an in-depth analysis of the current and future scenario of the industry.
The mycotoxin feed testing market size has grown strongly in recent years. It will grow from $1.45 billion in 2024 to $1.54 billion in 2025 at a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 6.2%. The growth in the historic period can be attributed to crop and environmental changes, economic factors, consumer confidence, global food safety awareness, industry collaboration.
The mycotoxin feed testing market size is expected to see strong growth in the next few years. It will grow to $2.11 billion in 2029 at a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 8.1%. The growth in the forecast period can be attributed to climate change impact, consumer demands, emerging markets, global food safety concerns. Major trends in the forecast period include stringent regulations, consumer awareness, precision agriculture, advance testing process, advancement in feed solution.
The forecast of 8.1% growth over the next five years remains unchanged from the previous projection for this market. This reduction is primarily due to the impact of tariffs between the US and other countries. Tariff-driven disruptions in accessing high-grade testing kits and sensors from international suppliers may impede rapid and large-scale feed contamination assessments. The effect will also be felt more widely due to reciprocal tariffs and the negative effect on the global economy and trade due to increased trade tensions and restrictions.
The rise in foodborne illnesses is anticipated to drive the mycotoxin feed testing market. As foodborne illnesses increase due to factors such as expanding commercial food services and new food production methods, mycotoxin feed testing plays a crucial role in reducing contamination risks. The World Health Organization reported that globally, around 600 million individuals, or one in ten people, suffer from foodborne illnesses, resulting in approximately 0.42 million annual deaths. Hence, the surge in foodborne illnesses propels the growth of mycotoxin feed testing.
Increased awareness of animal health is poised to boost the mycotoxin feed testing market. This heightened understanding of animal well-being covers various facets such as nutrition, disease prevention, and suitable housing. The demand for mycotoxin feed testing is rising due to its role in risk assessment, early detection, and ensuring safe, high-quality animal products. Reports from HealthforAnimals indicated a 12% increase in the global animal health sector's value to $38.3 billion in 2021, with revenues reaching $33.7 billion from $30 billion in 2020. Hence, growing awareness of animal health drives the mycotoxin feed testing market.
Technological advancements drive the popularity of mycotoxin feed testing. This testing involves analyzing animal feed for mycotoxins, toxic substances produced by fungi that can contaminate feed and harm livestock. Innovations such as Ring Biotechnology's iQuanti mycotoxins quantitative rapid test kit, launched in September 2022, provide rapid and accurate detection of major mycotoxins in cereals. The kit performs lateral flow immunoassays-based tests and can identify key mycotoxins in just 10 minutes following simple specimen extraction.
Major players in the mycotoxin feed testing market focus on product launches to meet the demand for accurate testing. Neogen Corporation's recent launch of Reveal Q+ for DON EndPoint and Reveal Q+ for Aflatoxin EndPoint assays targets the efficient detection of deoxynivalenol (DON) and aflatoxin in agricultural products such as corn. These assays, launched in May 2023, ensure swift and precise mycotoxin testing in food and feed products, emphasizing Neogen's commitment to food and animal safety solutions, especially in mycotoxin detection.
In July 2024, ImagoAI Inc., a food technology company based in the U.S., partnered with the USDA to create a handheld mycotoxin testing device known as GalaxyLyte. This collaboration seeks to improve food safety by providing a more accessible and convenient method for rapid mycotoxin testing across various agricultural sectors. The main objective is to enable food safety professionals to perform on-site testing, thus mitigating the risk of mycotoxin contamination in products like animal feed and human food.
