Seattle, WA -- (SBWIRE) -- 11/11/2019 -- Organic milk is a milk which is produced through organic farming methods such as feeding livestock with organic feed which doesn't have any artificial additives in the feed such as antibiotics and growth hormones. The living conditions should offer livestock free movement in an open space. Therefore, all livestock used to produce organic milk should be monitored and maintained by using organic farming methods.

Market Dynamics

Growing demand for organic food and beverage products across the consumer is projected to propel the market growth of organic milk. According to reports published by the Food and Drug Administration of the United States, six in 10 U.S. citizens believe that organic food products are better for their health. Also, according to the U.S Department of Agriculture, 4% of the total food sales in the U.S. in 2016 were organic products.

Also, growing awareness regarding the harmful effects of chemical ingredients present in the milk is further fueling the market growth of organic milk. Use of synthetic fertilizer which has harmful toxins such as heavy metals, nitrates, and metal salts, leads to various health issues. Whereas, organic farming doesn't induce any harmful chemical and is purely based on 100% organic feed to livestock. Hence, growing awareness regarding organic food as they are safe and are projected to augment the market growth of the organic milk over the forecast timeline

On the flip side, high cost associated with organic milk is expected to hamper the market growth. For instance, the United States Department of Agriculture (USDA) established guidelines for organic certification. Under USDA organic regulation (7 CFR 205), farms need to follow standards such as Land Requirement (205.202), the origin of livestock (205.236), Livestock Feed (205.237), and Livestock Healthcare Practices (205.238) to be eligible for organic certification. Therefore, such strict rules and regulation compel producers to maintain product quality and thus is presumed to limit the product demand

Market Outlook

Based on the distribution channel, the supermarket's segment is projected to tremendous traction in the overall market over the forecast period. Supermarkets are focusing on initiatives to tap the potential opportunity in the organic milk market. For instance, in February 2017, Asda, one of the key retailor in the U.K. started to sell Dairy Farmers 'free-range dairy milk', to meet consumer demand for organic milk in the U.K. Asda identified potential 109 stores and started selling organic milk under the Pasture Promos logo. Such marketing strategies are projected to boost sales of organic milk products through supermarkets
