What are the key drivers behind the rapid expansion of the malted barley market?

The growing demand for beer is expected to propel the growth of the malted barley market going forward. Beer is an alcoholic beverage that is produced through the fermentation of grains, typically malted barley, water, yeast, and hops. Malted barley is a key ingredient in beer production as it supplies the necessary enzymes for the breakdown of the complex carbohydrates in the grain and their conversion to simple sugars, which can then be further fermented by the yeast. For instance, in April 2024, according to BeverageDaily.com, a UK-based online website, in 2023, small and independent brewers collectively produced 23.4 million barrels of beer. Craft beer’s share of the total market increased to 13.3%, up from 13.1% in 2022 (by volume). Therefore, the growing demand for beer is driving the growth of the malted barley market going forward.
