Global Lysine Size is Estimated to be USD 3901.5 Million in 2026

Lysine is an α-amino acid with the chemical formula HO2CCH(NH2)(CH2)4NH2. It is an essential amino acid for humans. L-Lysine is the most important amino acid for monogastric species, as it is the first limiting amino acid for pigs and the second limiting amino acid for poultry.
The global Lysine size is estimated to be USD 3901.5 million in 2026 from USD 3154.8 million in 2020. The global Lysine market size is expected to grow at a CAGR of 5.5% for the next five years.

COVID-19 puts all businesses in a difficult business situation. The control of the supply and transportation of raw materials makes production more difficult, and even faces the phenomenon of shutdown. African swine fever has weakened the demand for lysine in the downstream feed industry in recent years. However, because lysine is an essential amino acid and can only be obtained from feed, the rigidity of downstream demand still exists.
