The global alfalfa hay market is estimated to be valued at USD 81.02 Bn in 2024, growing at a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 6.5% from 2024 to 2031. The global alfalfa hay market has witnessed steady growth in the past few years owing to the rising demand for alfalfa hay from the dairy industry. Alfalfa hay is widely used as high-quality feed for cows due to its high protein and calcium content. It helps in improving milk production and quality. Moreover, the growing organic livestock farming practices have also boosted the consumption of alfalfa hay across major agricultural economies. However, fluctuating weather conditions resulting in lower alfalfa production in some regions pose a major challenge to market growth.

Market Dynamics:

The key drivers fueling the growth of the global alfalfa hay market include rise in dairy consumption worldwide, ability of alfalfa hay to improve milk production from dairy cattle, and growth in organic farming practices. Alfalfa hay contains significant amounts of protein and calcium which help dairy cows produce more milk. This has increased its demand from dairy farmers globally. Moreover, the shift toward organic livestock farming has augmented the consumption of natural and high-quality feeds like alfalfa hay. However, volatile weather conditions resulting in lower alfalfa yields in certain seasons act as a major restraint for the market. Fluctuations in production can disrupt the steady supply of alfalfa hay. Opportunities for market players lie in developing weather-resistant alfalfa varieties and expanding production base to other suitable geographies.
