The Veterinary Rapid Diagnostic Tests Market is expected to grow at a CAGR of 8.1% from 2023 to 2030 to reach $1.1 billion by 2030. Veterinary rapid diagnostic tests include rapid test kits and rapid test readers used to diagnose viral, bacterial, parasitic and other conditions in companion and livestock animals. The growth in the veterinary rapid diagnostic tests market is mainly attributed to the increasing prevalence of zoonotic diseases, the advantages of rapid tests over other testing methods, the growing preference for at-home and farm testing, rising awareness regarding veterinary health and increasing global animal health expenditure, and the increasing demand for animal-derived food products. Moreover, emerging markets and increasing pet ownership are expected to offer growth opportunities for the players operating in this market.
