The increasing demand for grass-fed pork is fuelled by its value-added benefits such as better taste and high nutritional value. In addition, with growing health consciousness, consumers are shifting toward healthier varieties of red meat products, such as organic products. Moreover, along with taste, consumers also look for healthier variations of traditional pork meats. Organic production is a sustainable and environmentally safe way of producing pork meat from pigs that are grown on organic feeds. Furthermore, organic meats are extracted from animals that are raised without the use of any antibiotics, are fed natural feed, and are not genetically modified. Thus, the meat of such animals is safe to consume. Hence, such factors are driving the growth of the market during the forecast period.
