Since porcine gelatin is utilised as a stabiliser to maintain the safety and efficacy of vaccines during storage, rising demand for gelatin is anticipated to drive the market's expansion. Additionally, worries about the increased prevalence of zoonotic illnesses and the growing demand for meat, milk, eggs, and animal protein are anticipated to fuel the expansion of the porcine vaccines market throughout the course of the projected period. The market for pig vaccines is also being driven by an increase in the number of biotechnology firms, research institutions working on the production of porcine vaccines, and government financing programmes for the agriculture and animal husbandry sectors.
At a CAGR of 7.50% over the forecast period (2023-2028), the size of the global porcine vaccine market is anticipated to increase from USD 1,908.49 million in 2023 to USD 2,739.89 million by 2028.
