Feed Phosphates Market Forecasts to 2030 – Global Analysis By Type (Defluorinated Phosphate, Dicalcium Phosphate, Monocalcium Phosphate and Other Types), Livestock (Aquaculture, Poultry and Other Livestocks), Form (Powder and Granule), and By Geography
According to Stratistics MRC, the Global Feed Phosphates Market is accounted for $2.6 billion in 2023 and is expected to reach $3.90 billion by 2030 growing at a CAGR of 6.0% during the forecast period. Practically all living things need phosphorus, a micronutrient, for healthy growth and development over an acceptable period of time. Animal feed contains phosphates, which are used to supply phosphorus to animals. In order to ensure that an animal's food contains enough phosphorus to support optimum growth, performance, fertility, and bone development, feed phosphates, which are inorganic salts of phosphoric acid, are utilized. Phosphates are frequently used in animal feed because they increase egg laying capability and prevent illness which enhances the market growth.
According to the Organisation for Economic Co-operation and Development (OECD) report 2022, poultry meat is expected to represent 41% of all the protein from meat sources in 2030, an increase of 2 percentage points when compared to the base period.
Market Dynamics:Driver:Increasing the production of industrial livestock
Significant supply-side adjustments aimed at raising animal product yields have been prompted by the rising demand for livestock goods. Regional production of chicken and pig meat in industrial-style facilities is now feasible thanks to new capital-intensive technology. Recent years have seen an increase in the meat production sector, particularly in industrialized nations with lower land utilization, such the United States and Europe. This element increases the output of meat and cattle, which in turn accelerates the need for feed additives to feed the expanding animal populations in these nations. The best use of high-quality feed is made in industrial livestock production to increase animal muscle mass and protein content, boost feed conversion ratios, and increase production efficiency thus propelling the growth of the market.
Restraint:Growing inclination towards cheaper alternatives
In the meat production industry, adding enzymes to animal feed to optimize feed utilization has become common practice. This has resulted in the widespread usage of phytase in animal feed in place of phosphate. The National Center for Biotechnology Information notes that phytate's antinutritional activity may have an impact on an animal's ability to digest other nutrients and its overall performance. The feed phosphate industry players are also concentrated on reducing production costs through the introduction of new, reasonably priced animal feed phosphate products and the use of innovative manufacturing techniques.
Opportunity:Technological, new raw material and production process innovation
Technological developments have the potential to completely transform the feed phosphates market. New methods of extraction, methods of refining, and systems of quality control can maximize production effectiveness, cut expenses, and improve feed phosphate quality overall. Innovative technologies that raise manufacturing yields, promote uniformity, and streamline operations include nanotechnology, microencapsulation, automation, and sophisticated analytics. In addition, adherence to strict quality, safety, and sustainability norms is essential for market entry and gaining the trust of consumers. Through the implementation of cutting-edge procedures and materials that conform to legal requirements, producers of feed phosphate are eager to set themselves apart from competitors.
Threat:Feed phosphate toxicity
Phosphorus, a mineral necessary for animal growth and metabolism, is concentrated in feed phosphates. The delicate mineral balance in an animal's body, especially the calcium-phosphorus ratio, might be upset by excessive phosphorus consumption. An unbalanced ratio can cause skeletal deformities, mineral shortages, or poor bone formation, among other health problems. Reactive oxygen species (ROS) are produced by phosphorus metabolism and can cause oxidative damage to cells and tissues if the animal's antioxidant defenses are unable to control them. Extended periods of oxidative stress lead to decreased immunological response, increased susceptibility to infections, and inflammation. The possible toxicity of feed phosphates is further influenced by the interactions they have with other nutrients in animal diets. This leads to inadequate levels of feed phosphates in the diet, but also poor animal health due to phosphorus insufficiency thus impeding the market growth during the forecast period.
Covid-19 Impact
One of the most important aspects of the feed phosphate market's value chain is the delivery of raw materials, where vendors and important players are having difficulties as a result of inadequate logistics, traffic management, and limitations on public transportation in the impacted nations across the world, which caused supply interruptions. Trade restrictions put in place by a number of nations to stop the COVID-19 epidemic have had a severe impact on global logistics and shipping, which in turn has hurt the feed phosphate market.
The defluorinated phosphate segment is expected to be the largest during the forecast period
The defluorinated phosphate segment is estimated to have a lucrative growth, due to originaion from heated rock phosphates that have had the fluorine removed. Less than one component fluorine to every 100 parts of phosphorus is required. Defluorinated Phosphate's excellent solubility and ideal phosphorus concentration provide more options when formulating diets. The method of manufacture employed makes the finished product more palatable, which raises the rate of nutritional absorption. It is important to note that anhydrous dicalcium phosphates have the lowest feeding value, whereas defluorinated phosphate, which is produced from DCP using HCl, has a very high digestibility due to its purity.
The powder segment is expected to have the highest CAGR during the forecast period
The powder segment is anticipated to witness the highest CAGR growth during the forecast period, as it is possible to create uniform feed compositions with the use of powdered feed phosphates. In order to ensure that every animal in the herd or flock receives the same amounts of critical minerals, which supports the consistent and steady development of animals, uniformity is essential. In feed mills, using powdered feed phosphates increases efficiency. The uniform distribution and simplicity of mixing eliminate manufacturing losses and cut processing times, which helps feed producers save money.
Region with largest share:Asia Pacific is projected to hold the largest market share during the forecast period owing to the Therefore, an increase in domestic consumption of protein-based products in Asian countries, various promotional initiatives by the industries, and the decline of the African swine fever (ASF) in various nations are some of the essential factors expected to boost the growth of the market studied in the coming years. Therefore, some of the key elements anticipated to fuel the growth of the market under study in the upcoming years include an increase in the domestic consumption of protein-based products in Asian countries, a number of industry promotional initiatives, and the decline in African swine fever (ASF) in various nations.
Region with highest CAGR:Europe is projected to have the highest CAGR over the forecast period, owing to the EU's policies which encourage animal producers to use nutrient-rich feed additives and balance their production's environmental impact, along with the region's prevalence of different livestock producers, have made Europe the market leader for poultry feed phosphates. Meanwhile, South America is expected to grow during the forecast period of 2021–2028 due to the region's expanding livestock industry and rising use of compound feed.
