Due to various challenges heavily affecting the food production, agriculture, and livestock industries, it is worth noting that the demand in the Vietnamese market is predicted to increase significantly in the upcoming years. Vietnam is the tenth largest food producer in the world, as its feed production has been growing by 13-15% annually. Commercial animal feed products are anticipated to grow at an estimated CAGR of 6.6% per year, and by 2028, pork consumption per capita in Vietnam is projected to reach nearly 33 kilograms per person annually.
