Dynamics
Growing Demand for Nutritious Feed Ingredients
Nutritious feed ingredients are needed to produce a healthy feed for animals. Every animal has its own feed requirements for their growth and metabolism. Feed manufacturers develop animal feed with various ingredients that help improve the overall enhancement of animal feed. The nutritional value of feed is increased by inducing various feed additives and supplements derived from natural sources.
New launches from manufacturers with various feed ingredients fuel the market growth. In September 2022, Cargill announced the launch of Neochicc, a new mini-pellet chick feed that helps promote chick start in the first 120 hours of its life. The product comprises essential nutritious ingredients such as proteins, fat and starch. The highly digestible ingredients are feed additives to enhance the ultimate nutrient digestibility.
Rising Demand for Animal Based Products
Animal-based products such as milk, meat and eggs provide all essential nutrients required by the human body. The higher protein range of animal-based products makes it a finer choice for people. For instance, 100 g of chicken breast provides 30.9 g of protein. The greater nutrient content of eggs makes it a wholesome food and a multivitamin product.
The higher nutrient content of animal foods drives the demand for the production of healthier livestock. According to OECD-FAO Agricultural Outlook 2022-2031, world meat production rose by 5% in 2021. All the animals used to produce human food need to be supplemented with healthy nutrients to produce a good diet for humans.
Increasing Veganism
Increasing consumer knowledge regarding the negative impact of animal-based diet patterns on human health and the environment motivates people to adopt plant-based products. Health-conscious consumers prefer plant-based protein-based rather than animal-based due to thier lower calories, fats and cholesterol amounts. The rising demand for plant-based food products may leave animals behind, causing less demand for feed and feed ingredients.
The World Animal Foundation estimates that there are approximately 88 million vegans worldwide. According to the World Population Review, 9% of the Indian population will be vegan by 2021. The greater rates of vegan population in developing countries may show a negative impact on the global feed ingredients market as animal products are not valid much, reducing demand for feed and feed ingredients.
Segment AnalysisThe global animal feed ingredients market is segmented based on source, ingredient, nutrient, type, animal, nature, form, application and region.
Rising Trend of Organic Products
The global animal feed ingredients market is segmented based on nature into organic and conventional types. The organic type segment is receiving immense popularity, leading to its larger share in the market.

According to U.S. Department of Agriculture 2022 stats, there were approximately 92 million cows present in U.S., with approximately 14.7 million cattle on feed. The increased number of livestock directly increases high-quality feed to produce healthy and nutritious animal-based products for the consumers positively, affecting the market growth in this region.
North America region has one of the best technological advancements in the world. Use of advanced technology to produce animal feed combining all essential ingredients to improve the quality and efficiency of the feed to boost this region's market. The presence of key market players such as Cargill and Purina helps expand this region’s feed ingredients market globally.
Competitive LandscapeThe major global players in the market include Cargill, ADM, Evershining Ingredients Company, COFCO, Hamlet Proteins, Bunge, Louis Dreyfus, Wilmar International, Ingredion Incorporated and Sojaprotein.
COVID-19 Impact Analysis
The outbreak of the COVID-19 pandemic moderately impacted the global feed ingredients market. The improper conditions and functionalities in animal husbandry reduced the value of feed and feed ingredients. Livestock care was not given much importance. The improper management of the feed of various livestock had a negative impact on the feed market of the livestock and feed ingredients.
The disruption in the supply chain activities, reduced economic activity in the feed industries. The import and export restrictions halted the production and processing of animal-based products. The livestock subjected to the production of animal-based products, such as milk, eggs, meat and meat products, were also subjected to certain diseases giving rise to greater demand for the producers to take up nutritious feed for animals.
The increased health consciousness among people resulted in the demand for high-quality animal-based products. The growing importance of better quality feed ingredients that are naturally sourced for feed production for high-quality animal products positively affected the market growth. Healthy animals are used for the production of milk, meat and meat products
Russia- Ukraine War Impact
The Russia-Ukraine war had a negative impact on many industrial sectors, including animal feed. War disruption also created an immense impact on the crops and livestock. According to the Cabinet of Ministers of Ukraine, there was about a 20% reduction in the number of pigs in Ukraine. The decreased number of livestock decreased the demand for feed and feed ingredients.
The disruptions in the supply chain activities of the feed and feed ingredients had a major impact on the market. The war created import and export trade disruptions, resulting in economic disturbances. The political and economic uncertainty created due to the war had a negative impact on the feed ingredient market.
