Animal feed testing services involve assessments aimed at balancing diets and determining the need for nutritional supplements, crucial for effective livestock production. These assessments cover various types of feeds, including individual and compound feeds, basic feeds such as maize silage and hay, as well as supplementary feeds for livestock, aquaculture, poultry, horses, and pets.
The primary testing types in animal feed testing services include pathogen testing, fats and oils analysis, feed ingredient analysis, metal and mineral analysis, pesticides and fertilizers analysis, drugs and antibiotics analysis, mycotoxin testing, nutritional labeling, proximate analysis, and others. Pathogen testing is a specific type of analysis used to detect harmful organisms in production settings, components, or final products that may pose a threat to animal feed. The feeds subject to testing include pet feed and equine feeds. Various equipment types, such as bomb calorimeters, atomic absorption spectrometers (AAS), gas chromatograph-flame ionization detectors (GC-FID), gas chromatograph-mass spectrometers (GC-MS), high-performance liquid chromatography (HPLC), and others, are utilized in the testing process. These services are employed by manufacturers, third-party testers, growers, or non-profit organizations, among other end users.
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.
Tariffs are impacting the animal feed testing service market by increasing costs of imported laboratory instruments, reagents, consumables, and analytical equipment such as HPLC and GC-MS systems. Testing laboratories in North America and Europe are most affected due to reliance on imported high-precision instruments, while Asia-Pacific faces higher equipment acquisition costs. These tariffs are raising service costs and capital expenditure requirements. However, they are also driving domestic equipment sourcing, regional laboratory expansion, and investments in local testing capabilities.

This animal feed testing service 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 animal feed testing service market size has grown strongly in recent years. It will grow from $1.36 billion in 2025 to $1.49 billion in 2026 at a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 9.7%. The growth in the historic period can be attributed to increasing livestock production activities, rising awareness of feed quality management, expansion of commercial feed manufacturing, availability of standardized testing methods, growth of third-party testing services.
The animal feed testing service market size is expected to see strong growth in the next few years. It will grow to $2.17 billion in 2030 at a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 9.8%. The growth in the forecast period can be attributed to increasing regulatory scrutiny on feed safety, rising demand for precision nutrition in animal diets, expansion of aquaculture and pet feed testing, growing adoption of digital laboratory systems, increasing investment in advanced analytical technologies. Major trends in the forecast period include increasing adoption of advanced mycotoxin testing, rising demand for nutritional profiling services, growing use of chromatography-based analysis, expansion of regulatory compliance testing, enhanced focus on feed safety and quality assurance.
The increasing prevalence of zoonotic diseases is expected to propel the growth of the animal feed testing services market going forward. Zoonotic diseases are infectious diseases that can be transmitted between animals and humans and are caused by pathogens such as viruses, bacteria, parasites, and fungi. As awareness of these diseases rises, ensuring the safety and quality of animal feed has become increasingly critical. Animal feed testing services play a vital role in preventing zoonotic disease transmission by detecting contaminants, pathogens, and harmful substances in feed, thereby safeguarding animal health and public health. For instance, in February 2023, according to the Council on Foreign Relations (CFR), a US-based independent, nonpartisan think tank, up to 75% of newly discovered or emerging infectious diseases and 60% of recognized infectious diseases have zoonotic origins. Globally, zoonotic diseases are responsible for approximately 2.7 million human deaths and 2.5 billion cases of illness each year. Therefore, the increasing prevalence of zoonotic diseases is driving the growth of the animal feed testing services market.
Major companies in the animal feed testing services market are developing advanced solutions, such as Quality Control (QC), to ensure the safety, consistency, and nutritional value of animal feed products. Quality Control is a process used by businesses to ensure that a product or service meets specific quality and performance standards. For example, in May 2023, JAPFA, an India-based agro-industrial company, launched an Animal Feed and Agri Allied Products Testing Laboratory in Maharashtra and West Bengal, which is accredited by the National Accreditation Board for Testing and Calibration Laboratories (NABL), an Indian body that provides accreditation to conformity assessment bodies (laboratories) in India. This laboratory will offer essential testing services to ensure that animal feed products are safe, nutritious, and compliant with regulatory standards, which is vital for supporting livestock health and productivity. The laboratory provides quality control and safety assessments for animal feed by analyzing samples to evaluate their nutritional content, identify contaminants, and assess the overall composition of the feed.
In November 2024, Eurofins Agro Testing, a global laboratory network specializing in agri-environmental and feed analysis, announced a strategic collaboration with trinamiX GmbH to launch a mobile forage feed-analysis solution. Through this collaboration, the companies aim to enable real-time, on-farm analysis of forage by combining trinamiX's PAL Two handheld near-infrared (NIR) spectrometer with Eurofins Agro Testing's forage-analysis applications. This solution provides farmers, feed suppliers, and advisors with instant nutritional insights, helping optimize feed quality management and improve decision-making. trinamiX GmbH is a Germany-based technology company specializing in mobile spectroscopy and material analysis solutions.
