(PharmaNewsWire.Com, May 01, 2019 ) According to the new market research report “Animal Genetics Market by Type (Canine, Poultry, Porcine, Bovine) Genetic Material [Semen (Bovine Porcine Equine) Embryo (Bovine Equine) Testing Services (DNA Testing, DNA Typing, Genetic Disease Testing) — Global Forecast to 2021”, published by MarketsandMarkets™
The animal genetics market witnessed healthy growth during the last decade, primarily attributed to the increasing animal protein consumption and increasingly urban global population. To cater to the rising demand of animal proteins, farmers are increasingly adopting advanced genetic technologies for larger-scale production and quality breeds.
In addition, growing awareness about veterinary genetic diseases and disorders; increase in the population of livestock animals, especially in emerging markets; implementation of animal welfare acts in developed countries; and development of cutting-edge technologies in animal genetic testing are further driving this market.
