Livestock producers prioritizing animal nutrition, productivity, and health are more inclined to incorporate alfalfa into their feeding programs.
Additionally, the alfalfa seeds market is shaped by evolving trends and dynamics that reflect broader agricultural shifts, consumer preferences, sustainability initiatives, and technological innovations. For instance, the growing demand of plant-based diets and vegetarian lifestyles has fueled demand for plant-derived protein sources, including alfalfa. As consumers seek alternatives to animal-derived products, alfalfa seeds offer a plant-based protein option with nutritional benefits and culinary versatility. The rise of plant-based diets is expected to drive demand for alfalfa seeds in human nutrition and livestock feed sectors.

Increased acreage devoted to forage crops like alfalfa could drive up demand for alfalfa seeds in Canada. According to the Government of Canada, over the last 50 years, the average farm size in Canada has nearly doubled, reaching 62.2 million hectares, which represents 6.2% of the country’s land area. Therefore, the rising agriculture sector and the increasing food processing industry in the region drive the market’s growth.
