According to Stratistics MRC, the Global Feed Preservatives Market is accounted for $3.46 billion in 2022 and is expected to reach $4.83 billion by 2028 growing at a CAGR of 5.7% during the forecast period. A feed preservative is a substance used in animal feed to reduce or prevent bacterial development. These additives decrease microbial contamination, extending the shelf life of complex feed. The two most often used preservatives are antioxidants and mold inhibitors. Demand for feed preservatives is rising as the livestock and feed industries expand. The expanding demand for feed additives has been greatly influenced by the increased attention on food and feed safety.
According to the International Feed Industry Federation (IFIF), the animal feed industry goes across the edge of 1 billion metric tons of production and is predicted to continue an upward trajectory as the population continues to rise. The animal feed industry grew by a strong 3 percent in 2018, to 1.103 billion metric tons.
Market Dynamics:
Driver:
Growing applications of livestock in the food industry to fuel its production
The livestock sector has been impacted by the vastly increased global demand for animal production. The market is being driven by a number of variables, including a sharp increase in meat consumption, a growth in the demand for meat and dairy products, and a rise in egg demand. The demand for feed preservatives has greatly expanded as a result of the growing demand for livestock in the food business.
Restraint:
Low-profit margin and lesser availability of end products
High margins are difficult to obtain in the animal nutrition sector. The sales volume has decreased during the last few decades as a result of the lower volume of high margin products sold. The available margins have been reduced, and the sales volume has decreased, as a result of the oversupply, overpromising, and under delivering principles. The demand for feed preservatives gradually decreased as a result of under delivering principles, which reduced the profit that was initially accessible.
Opportunity:
Surge in demand for natural preservatives
To increase the feed's effectiveness and shelf life, feed preservatives are utilized. Antibiotics can no longer be used to preserve feeds due to antibiotic-resistant bacteria and their residue in animal products brought on by the widespread use of antibiotics. Antibiotics cannot be used to stimulate growth, according to the EU. Natural feed preservatives now have a growth opportunity due to the restriction on antibiotics.
Threat:
Market capitalization
The cooperative organizations have a strong network of farmers that get raw ingredients locally, which presents a challenge for feed preservative producers. Because these organizations are the largest buyers in the area or region, they may obtain commercial feed and have a competitive edge over feed manufacturers.
Covid-19 Impact
COVID-19 is an unprecedented global public health disaster that has affected nearly every business, and the long-term impacts are expected to have an influence on industry growth during the forecast period. The supply chain of the raw material has been disrupted by the pandemic and lockdown, which have changed global patterns of consumption and manufacturing. Because animals cannot acquire enough nourishment from regular feed, vitamins, fatty acids, amino acids, and trace minerals are added to their usual diet as feed additives. More than 100 nations around the world have been affected by the COVID-19 outbreak, which will have a big influence on the market for compound feed and additives in 2020.
The poultry segment is expected to be the largest during the forecast period
The poultry segment is estimated to have a lucrative growth, due to the increasing demand for eggs for appropriate vitamins and protein. The need for feed preservatives in the chicken industry will increase as people become more aware of the importance of optimal nutrition and care. Additionally, the rising demand for poultry meat would increase the use of animal feed among poultry producers, which is anticipated to increase the use of feed preservatives to lengthen the shelf life of the product. This is due to the low cost and high protein content of poultry meat.
The compound feed segment is expected to have the highest CAGR during the forecast period
The compound feed segment is anticipated to witness the fastest CAGR growth during the forecast period, due to growing business portfolios and expanded market prospects. Compound feed, which is used to feed cattle, is a combination of organic materials and foods that may be eaten, including vegetables.
Region with highest share:
Asia Pacific is projected to hold the largest market share during the forecast period owing to the growing importance of the cattle and poultry industries in the region, particularly in India and China. Additionally, it is anticipated that the region will use feed preservatives more frequently due to the favorable view of disease-free bovine meat. China is one of the world's major producers of meat, which is anticipated to continue to be advantageous for market expansion within the region.
Region with highest CAGR:
North America is projected to have the highest CAGR over the forecast period, owing to the easy availability of raw material such as maize and dextrose within the region. For example, the United States is one of the world's largest maize producers. A total of 96,000,000 acres were set aside in the United States for maize farming, and 13% of the crop's annual harvest is exported to foreign nations. Additionally, it is anticipated that the market expansion will be aided by the presence of major industry players in the area, including Cargill Incorporated, Dupont Nutrition & Health, and others.
