The Agricultural Outlook 2025–2034, released Tuesday, projects a 6% increase in global per capita consumption of animal-source foods by 2034. The trend is most pronounced in lower middle-income countries, where intake is expected to rise by 24%, far outpacing the global average. Production expanding but emissions risingTo meet rising demand, global agricultural and fish production is projected to increase by 14% over the next decade, largely driven by productivity gains in middle-income nations. Output of meat, dairy and eggs is expected to grow by 17%, while total livestock inventories are projected to expand by 7%. “We have the tools to end hunger and boost global food security,” said Mathias Cormann, Secretary-General of the OECD.
