<h2>Market Overview</h2>
De-oiled Rice Bran is the residue obtained after the extraction of oil from rice bran. Traditionally viewed as a waste product, it has gained significant industrial value due to its rich fiber, mineral, and protein profile (typically containing <strong>14% to 18% protein</strong>). The market is currently undergoing a transformation, shifting from a localized byproduct used in rural farming to a globally traded commodity used in <strong>aquaculture, poultry, and even biofuel production</strong>. Government policies in major rice-producing nations are expected to further catalyze international trade and supply chain stability.
<h2>Market Size &amp; Forecast</h2>
The global <strong>De-oiled Rice Bran Market</strong> is projected to grow from <strong>USD 957.74 million</strong> in 2024 to <strong>USD 1,362.00 million</strong> by 2032. This growth represents a Compound Annual Growth Rate (<strong>CAGR</strong>) of <strong>4.50%</strong> during the forecast period. The increasing integration of DORB into compound feed formulations and the rising price of corn and soybean meal are primary factors driving this value appreciation.
