The livestock grow lights market is projected to grow from USD 6.3 billion in 2018 to USD 8.6 billion by 2023, at a CAGR of 6.4% during the forecast period. This is attributed to technological innovations and the adoption of smart livestock farming practices. However, the increase in the demand and consumption of livestock-based products and the rising focus on livestock growth and welfare together with the emphasis on livestock productivity drives the demand for using grow lights in livestock barns.
The LED segment is projected to witness the fastest growth due to its significant energy savings and longer durability properties. In addition, it is more energy-efficient with one-fifth of the power consumption of incandescent bulbs.
Based on the livestock segment, the market is estimated to be dominated by the cattle segment in 2018. In dairy farms, grow lights help in improving the output of milk production from dairy cattle; whereas in beef cattle, grow lights are used to stimulate muscle growth to increase meat production.
The Asia Pacific market accounted for the largest share in the livestock grow lights market. The large market share in this region is attributed to the presence of large livestock population (FAO STATISTICS 2016) and their growth. Furthermore, the rising number of livestock farms and the growing size of existing farms are also projected to contribute to the large market of the Asia Pacific region.
