Dairy Products Market Trends

Growth Drivers

• Technology Advancements - Emerging technology is transforming the dairy industry worldwide. Data-driven precision agriculture is growing due to AI (artificial intelligence) and IIOT (Industrial Internet of Things). Genomic advances and new breeding methods will allow producers to select and raise animals with desirable qualities, such as milk-producing cows. With increased preservation and microbial control, technology is helping companies meet and exceed new food safety regulations further driving the market growth.
  
  MyAniML, a Kansas City-based animal health technology business, is studying the cow's muzzle for health improvements. Their computer vision system analyzes the face and muzzle for early signs of illness using machine learning and facial recognition.
• Rising Health Concerns of Polish Consumers - Consumers who prioritize their health are increasing the demand for dairy products that have been fortified with additional nutritional advantages. Producers are enhancing the utility of items beyond fundamental nutritional needs. The current emphasis lies in the development of goods containing minimal fat content and augmented levels of protein, probiotics, minerals, and vitamins.
  
  Dairy products possess a suitable nutritional composition that has a beneficial impact on human health. Dairy products also have a significant impact on the occurrence and management of some diseases, such as obesity, hypertension, type 2 diabetes, and cardiovascular disease.
• Rising Govt. schemes and initiatives - The dairy products market is projected to expand due to the increasing government schemes and initiatives aimed at enhancing milk output and improving cow productivity. For instance, In 2021, The Philippines entered into a five-year cooperation with the private sector to enhance the dairy industry through the implementation of the Dairy Training and Development Program.
  
  The main objective is to enhance the quality of milk and augment both cow productivity and the accessibility of farmers to the market. Moreover, milk is now widely recognized as a crucial and regularly consumed item in most households. Hence, it is anticipated that the worldwide market will experience significant growth over the projected timeframe.

Challenges

• Customer Preferences For Plant-Based Products - There has been a significant increase in the demand for goods that are derived from plants and do not contain dairy. The increase in demand can be attributed to the growing number of customers adopting vegetarianism and veganism. Additionally, there has been a significant rise in the population of lactose-intolerant individuals. Furthermore, the desire for alternative dairy products derived from soy, almond, oat, or coconut is being propelled by health and environmental considerations.
• Emphasis on Ethical Practices and The Well-being of Animals - Consumers are increasingly expressing apprehension regarding the well-being of cows, buffalos, lambs, and goats utilized in the dairy industry. Analysis indicates that manufacturers in emerging countries, such as Africa and China, as well as higher-income regions, such as America and Europe, will need to implement stricter animal welfare requirements. Anticipated is the increased likelihood of additional nations mandating the inclusion of labelling and certification as a means to substantiate compliance with animal welfare criteria.
