Poultry Feed Premix - Market Share Analysis, Industry Trends & Statistics, Growth Forecasts 2019 - 2029

The Poultry Feed Premix Market size is estimated at USD 6.87 billion in 2024, and is expected to reach USD 8.19 billion by 2029, growing at a CAGR of 3.60% during the forecast period (2024-2029).

Key Highlights

• At the end of 2019, poultry toppled pork as the number one consumed meat in the world. The global consumption of poultry meat stood at 124.6 million metric ton. Increased consumption of poultry meat led to increased industrialization of poultry rearing, thus, necessitating the use of feed premixes in poultry feed.
• Almost 65% of the cost of production of poultry is accounted for by feed. This led to high fluctuations in production costs, on account of fluctuating prices of feed raw materials, like corn. This phenomenon has led farmers to prefer feed combinations that provide maximum feed conversion. Apart from supporting nutritional requirements of the birds, premixes are also important for improved feed conversion ratio and, hence, they are a key part of large-scale poultry rearing.

Poultry Feed Premix Market Trends

Vitamins - One of the Most Important Ingredients

Vitamins are one of the most important ingredients in poultry feed. The industry average allowance of vitamins, a major ingredient in premix products, increased significantly from 30% to 500%, over the past decade, in order to cope with better feed efficiency, faster growth rates, and greater genetic potential, all working in tandem to drive the premix market. Poultry breeding also witnessed a consistent improvement in the genetic stock. This necessitates the need for continuous modification of the vitamin requirement of poultry. In addition to being an important ingredient for increasing survival rates and immunity, poultry grown under common stress conditions is greatly improved by increased vitamin supplementation. Under intensive growing conditions, poultry birds are especially susceptible to vitamin deficiencies and, hence, the increasing industrialization of poultry production is expected to drive the vitamins segment of the poultry feed premix market.

Asia-Pacific Leads the Global Market

The Asia-Pacific region produced 34.6 million metric ton of chicken meat in the year 2017. The region is the highest poultry production region across the world. The consumption is particularly high in countries such as China, India, Thailand because of rising income of middle-class population, availability of poultry meat at cheaper cost due to production cost benefits and strong export demand. From a small-scale backyard industry, poultry has transformed to be highly industrialized in production scale. Farmers in the region are increasingly investing in high-quality feed to provide optimum nutrition to animals. With increase in poultry consumption, and the resultant impetus to industrialization, the Asia-Pacific region is expected to remain the top regional market for Poultry Feed Premix over the forecast period.
