Industry Growth Factors

• The need to make animal feed nutritive has led to massive market growth across the globe

The rise in feedstock farm sizes has catapulted the demand for feed additives in recent years. Apart from this, the commercialization of livestock farming, reduction of grazing lands, and the need for feed ingredients consisting of high nutritive value will accentuate the growth of the global feed additives market.

Moreover, the need for feed efficacy will further embellish the expansion of the global feed additives market. As per the International Feed Industry Federation, commercial feed production produces an estimated yearly turnover of more than $400 billion.

Furthermore, a rise in feed production, demand for livestock-based items, and a surge in livestock population will contribute majorly towards global market profits. Massive demand for high-quality animal-based proteins and awareness about the benefits provided by feed additives will expedite the size of the feed additives market.

In addition to this, the rising acceptance of precision-based livestock farming activities and government aid for using feed additives in animal feed has enlarged the scope of growth for the market across the globe.

Restraints

• Rise in costs of raw components to hinder the global industry growth by 2030

The surge in raw material costs and a ban on the use of antibiotics can put brakes on the global feed additives industry growth in the near future. The easy availability of crop residues as feeds can further impede the global feed additives industry expansion.

Opportunities

• Use of botanical additives such as plant extracts as feed additives to open new vistas of growth for the global market

Feed additive manufacturers are adopting new kinds of natural feed additives along with new growth enhancers such as botanical additives like appropriate herb blends and plant extracts. This, in turn, is predicted to generate new growth opportunities for the global feed additives industry.

Challenges

• Livestock chain and the need for improving feed additive sustenance are two big challenges faced by the global industry

The sustainability of feed additives and livestock chain are the two key challenges that can impact the growth of the feed additives industry globally.

Segmentation Analysis

The global feed additives market is sectored into additive, livestock, and region.   

In terms of additives, the global feed additives market is sectored into phytogenics, enzymes, acidifiers, antibiotics, antioxidants, amino acids, prebiotics, binders, minerals, mycotoxin detoxifiers, flavors & sweeteners, pigments, vitamins, probiotics, and yeast segments.

Furthermore, the amino acid segment, which accounted for more than 70% of the global market share in 2022, is set to record the fastest CAGR of 5.1% over the forecasting period. The segmental surge in the next eight years can be attributed to the ability of amino acids in improving the development of animals.

Based on livestock, the feed additives industry across the globe is divided into ruminants, aquaculture, poultry, and swine segments. The poultry segment, which contributed for about three-fourths of the global industry share in 2022, is expected to rule the global industry expansion even in the foreseeable future. The growth of the segment in the coming years can be subject to growing awareness about animal health as well as customer inclination for particular yolk and meat leading to humongous penetration of feed additives in the poultry segment.

Recent Breakthroughs:

• In the first half of 2021, Kemin Industries, a global ingredient supplier, launched KemTRACE Chromium-OR, a feed additive that can be used in the feed of animals such as horses, swine, broilers, and cattle. The move will provide impetus to the expansion of the feed additives market across the globe.

• In the first quarter of 2021, Alltech, a U.S.-based firm in the animal feed supplements business, and DLG Group, a UK-based insurance firm, joined hands for bringing efficiency to the operations of livestock producers in Scandinavia. Reportedly, both firms have started of acquiring Karki-Agri Oy, a Finland-based firm. The move will contribute majorly to the growth of the feed additives industry in Europe.

• In the second half of 2020, ADM Company introduced NutriPass L, a capsule lysine supplement in the feed of cows. The move will contribute sizably towards the growth of the feed additives business globally.
