Europe Bovine and Goat Colostrum Market Analysis, Size, and Share by 2027

Colostrum contains a large amount of gamma globulins, i.e., antibodies that are produced by dairy animals against specific antigens to encounter many disease-producing organisms. Also, colostrum has a higher amount of vitamin A and various minerals. Calves consumes lactose and fat from colostrum to prompt heat production and maintain persistent body temperature. The quantity of colostrum, quality of colostrum, and timing of supplementation are the major factors controlling the dynamics of the passive transfer of immunity to neonatal calves via colostrum. The quality of colostrum is unswervingly linked to its antibody concentration. The older cows generally produce an elevated concentration of antibodies, compared to the first-calf heifers. A critical mass of 100–200 g of antibodies must be ingested and absorbed by the neonatal calf to gain passive immunity.

Goat colostrum shows similar nucleotide patterns as that of human and cow colostrum. The progression in the demand for functional foodstuffs is among the factors magnifying the demand for bovine and goat colostrum. However, stringent regulations pertaining to the use of bovine colostrum in infant formula hinder the growth of the market in Europe.

COVID-19 has affected economies and industries in various countries due to imposed lockdowns, travel bans, and business shutdowns. Food and beverages is one of the major industries suffering serious disruptions such as supply chain breaks, disrupted manufacturing, and office shutdowns as a result of this outbreak. These factors have also affected the Europe bovine and goat colostrum market. In Europe, Italy is the hardest-hit country by the coronavirus outbreak. It is expected to suffer an economic hit due to a lack of revenue from various industries. Other member states have implemented drastic measures and travel restrictions, including partially closing their borders. Nevertheless, with the new features and technologies, vendors can add new customers to their clientele and expand their footprint in emerging markets. This factor is likely to drive the bovine and goat colostrum market in the coming years.
