Feed additives are pharmaceutical or nutritional substances which
are not of natural origin and are added to prepare and store feeds.
Feed additives are gaining importance due to various functions such
as growth promotion, controlling infectious diseases, and
enhancement of feed digestibility. The global feed additives market
is growing at a steady pace and the market is expected to grow in
the future due to the increasing demand for meat and meat products
around the globe. Epidemics like bird flu, other diseases like
foot-and mouth-disease, and environmental concerns have led to an
increase in concern over animal health round the globe, due to
which meat producers have increased their focus on feed quality and
certification.
North America and Asia-Pacific are the top two consumers of feed
additives in the world together accounting for more than 60% of the
consumption. Asia-Pacific is estimated to be the fastest growing
region in terms of revenue. Growth is particularly high in emerging
countries such as China, India, and Brazil due to increasing income
levels and rising per capita meat consumption. Poultry market has
the largest market share for feed additives followed by pork. The
driving factors of the global animal feed additives market are rise
in global meat consumption, increasing awareness towards meat
quality and safety, increasing mass production of meat, and recent
livestock disease outbreaks.
The restraints of the market are raising raw material cost and
regulatory structure. However, increasing cost of natural feed
products is creating an opportunity for feed additives as a cheap
alternative. Leading manufacturers are focused on expansion of the
business across regions and setting up new plant for increasing
production capacity as well as product line.
