Alfalfa hay has emerged as an essential component in dairy and poultry feed due to its high crude protein content. The Asia Pacific alfalfa hay market growth is primarily driven by its continued importance in animal feed applications. Modern practices in the dairy industry are propelling this regional market's expansion. Dairy farmers are not only increasing their herd sizes but are also turning to imported hay and commercial feeds. In response to this surging demand, governments are emphasizing the production of domestic alfalfa hay. As per USDA, India, in collaboration with the U.S., has set a target of USD 60 million in alfalfa hay exports by 2026.

In China, alfalfa thrives in the northern and western regions, notably Inner Mongolia, Xinjiang, and Gansu, where the climate and vast grasslands are conducive to its growth. While China's alfalfa exports have been modest, in 2023, the nation shipped out around 500,000 tons, primarily to neighboring countries and Southeast Asia.

Studies highlight that alfalfa hay not only boosts animal growth and development but also enhances milk productivity. Its rich protein and energy content make it a prized addition to the diets of lactating dairy cows. Furthermore, its rapid fermentation, diverse mineral profile, and fiber content play a crucial role in promoting rumen health and synthesizing milk butterfat. Such advantages have spurred the demand for alfalfa hay, especially in cattle and horse feed.

With diminishing grazing fields, alfalfa cultivation areas in the region are expanding. Farmers are ramping up alfalfa production to satisfy livestock feed needs. This surge in demand for nutritious legume-based forage crops has led to an increase in the harvested area for alfalfa. Given these dynamics, the Asia-Pacific alfalfa hay market is poised for continued growth in the coming years.
