Compound & Specialty Feed segment by Type held the highest revenue share in Qatar Animal Feed Market -6Wresearch

The Compound & Specialty Feed segment dominated Qatar Animal Feed market due to rising demand for nutritionally balanced, high-performance solutions across dairy, poultry, sheep, and goat farming. Focus on milk yield, productivity, herd health, and feed efficiency increased adoption of protein-rich feed and additives, while food security initiatives and self-sufficiency targets accelerated advanced formulations.

According to 6Wresearch, Qatar animal feed market revenue is projected to grow at a CAGR of 6.8% and market volume is projected at 3.6% growth during 2026–2032F, Between 2022 and 2025, Qatar’s animal feed sector was supported by gradual expansion in dairy, poultry, aquaculture, and sheep farming activities under the National Food Security Strategy 2018–2023. Qatar’s livestock population is largely composed of sheep and goats, followed by camels and cattle, supporting steady and consistent feed demand across the country. Government initiatives including the Feed Subsidy Program and National Initiative for Encouraging Local Red Meat Production improved feed accessibility for breeders and commercial farms.

However, high dependence on imported feed ingredients exposed the sector to supply-chain disruptions, while 2024 Red Sea shipping disruptions increased freight costs and caused shipment delays of few days. Additionally, the 2025 feed supply agreement between the UAE’s National Feed Factory and Qatar’s Al Rayyan Horse Supplies Company strengthened regional feed availability and supply continuity. Consequently, rising livestock activities and food security investments continued to support feed demand growth across Qatar through 2025.

Between 2026 and 2032, Qatar’s animal feed market is expected to grow at a steady and gradual pace, supported by long-term food security policies, livestock expansion, and sustainable agricultural investments. Under the Third Qatar National Development Strategy 2024–2030, Qatar targets higher self-sufficiency in dairy and poultry, table eggs, and fish production, supporting continued demand for compound feed, aquafeed, forage products, and specialty additives.

Expansion of commercial dairy farms, sheep and goat farming, and aquaculture projects is expected to gradually increase feed consumption across the country. In addition, strategic regional feed partnerships, barley procurement initiatives, hydroponic fodder systems, and smart farming technologies are anticipated to improve feed availability and agricultural efficiency. Consequently, government-backed food security investments are expected to support stable long-term market growth through 2032.

According to Bhawna, Assistant Manager, 6Wresearch, Hay & Forage Feed dominated Qatar Animal Feed market by volume due to high daily consumption across cattle, sheep, goats, and camels. Alfalfa hay, Rhodes grass, barley grass, and silage supported digestion, rumen health, and nutrition. Strong livestock numbers, dairy herd needs, and fodder dependence sustained higher demand.
