According to the latest report by IMARC Group, titled “Oats Market: Global Industry Trends, Share, Size, Growth, Opportunity and Forecast 2019-2024”, the global oats market size reached 23.5 Million Tons in 2018. Oats, scientifically known as Avena Sativa, are a type of cereal generally consumed in the form of oatmeal or rolled oats. They are an excellent source of essential nutrients such as vitamins, minerals, fiber and antioxidants.

Besides this, they are used as primary ingredients in breakfast cereals and baked goods such as oat bread, cookies and cakes.

Global Oats Market Trends:

Due to its high hull and fiber content, oat grain is considered as good dietetic food for young ruminants and helps to develop their rumen. As a result, oats have majorly been used in animal feed, which acts as the primary factor driving the market growth. Apart from this, there has been a rise in awareness about the health benefits offered by oats, such as lowering cholesterol levels and protecting from LDL cholesterol damage, improving blood sugar level and reducing calorie intake. These health benefits have escalated the demand for oats as a healthy breakfast and snack option. Besides this, with the rapid westernization and busy lifestyles, people nowadays are more inclined toward ready-to-eat food products, owing to which market players have introduced instant oats that can be prepared quickly.

They have also launched organic, gluten-free oatmeal for people with gluten-intolerance.
