According to Stratistics MRC, the Global Earthworm Powder Market is accounted for $1.52 billion in 2024 and is expected to reach $1.92 billion by 2030 growing at a CAGR of 10.5% during the forecast period. Earthworm powder is a product derived from earthworms, typically through processes such as sun-drying, oven-drying, or freeze-drying. It has been utilized in traditional medicine for its therapeutic properties and as a livestock feed supplement due to its high protein content and bioactive compounds. In traditional Chinese medicine, dried earthworm powder has been used to treat various conditions, including convulsions, fevers, and certain types of arthritis.
According to the report by researchers at University College Dublin, Earthworms powder contributes approximately 6.5% of the total yield and about 2.3% of legume production, accounting for more than 140 million metric tons annually.
Market Dynamics:
Driver:
Growing awareness of soil health among farmers
As farmers recognize the importance of maintaining soil fertility, they seek sustainable solutions like earthworm powder, which improves soil structure, boosts microbial activity, and enhances nutrient availability. Earthworm powder is rich in enzymes, proteins, and beneficial microorganisms that promote plant growth, reduce dependence on chemical fertilizers, and increase crop yields. Additionally, as governments and agricultural organizations promote eco-friendly farming practices, the demand for earthworm powder rises, further propelling market growth in both organic and conventional farming sectors.
Restraint:
Limited awareness and availability
Limited awareness and availability of earthworm powder stem from a lack of consumer knowledge, insufficient marketing, and restricted distribution channels. Many farmers and industries remain unaware of its benefits, limiting adoption. Additionally, production challenges, including sourcing, processing, and regulatory approvals, contribute to inconsistent supply. This hampers market growth by restricting demand, reducing scalability, and discouraging investments.
Opportunity:
Expansion into functional foods and dietary supplements
Rich in essential nutrients, earthworm powder is gaining traction in the health and wellness industry for its potential benefits, including immune support, anti-inflammatory properties, and improved digestion. As consumer demand for natural, protein-rich supplements rises, companies are incorporating earthworm-derived products into functional foods and nutraceuticals. This diversification into the wellness sector enhances market reach, driving demand and boosting overall market growth.
Threat:
Increasing adoption of vegan lifestyles
With a rising global preference for plant-based alternatives in food, supplements, and agriculture, demand for animal-derived products like earthworm powder declines. Vegan consumers and businesses seek plant-based proteins and fertilizers, reducing market penetration. Additionally, ethical concerns regarding insect and animal exploitation further limit adoption. As veganism continues to grow, earthworm powder faces challenges in maintaining its market share in the evolving health and sustainability sectors.
Covid-19 Impact:
The covid-19 pandemic had a mixed impact on the earthworm powder market. Initially, supply chain disruptions and economic uncertainties hindered production and distribution. However, the pandemic heightened awareness of sustainable and organic farming practices, leading to increased demand for natural soil amendments like earthworm powder. Despite early challenges, the emphasis on sustainable agriculture during the pandemic provided growth opportunities for the Earthworm Powder market.
The spray-dried powder segment is expected to be the largest during the forecast period
The spray-dried powder segment is expected to account for the largest market share during the forecast period. Spray-dried earthworm powder is a nutrient-rich supplement made by processing earthworms into a fine, dry powder. It is rich in proteins, amino acids, and essential minerals, making it a valuable ingredient in animal feed, aquaculture, and organic fertilizers. Known for boosting growth and immunity in livestock and fish, it is an eco-friendly, sustainable protein source gaining popularity in agriculture and pet food industries.
The animal feed segment is expected to have the highest CAGR during the forecast period
Over the forecast period, the animal feed segment is predicted to witness the highest growth rate. Earthworm powder is a nutrient-rich supplement used in animal feed to enhance growth, immunity, and digestion. It is packed with high-quality proteins, essential amino acids, vitamins, and minerals, promoting better weight gain and feed efficiency in livestock, poultry, and aquaculture. Sustainable and eco-friendly, earthworm powder is an excellent alternative protein source, contributing to improved animal performance and overall farm productivity.
Region with largest share:
During the forecast period, the Asia Pacific region is expected to hold the largest market share driven by its extensive agricultural base and increasing adoption of sustainable farming practices. Countries like China and India are major contributors, leveraging earthworm powder to enhance soil fertility and boost crop yields. The region's expanding pharmaceutical and cosmetic industries also utilize earthworm powder for its bioactive compounds, further propelling market growth.
Region with highest CAGR:
Over the forecast period, the North America region is anticipated to exhibit the highest CAGR is expected to witness the highest CAGR over the forecast period due to a strong demand for organic and sustainable farming practices, particularly in the United States and Canada. Additionally, the region's well-established agricultural sector and growing consumer preference for eco-friendly products contribute to market growth. The emphasis on sustainable agriculture and environmental stewardship further propels the adoption of earthworm powder in North America.
