Based on type, in terms of value, the specialty additives segment is estimated to witness rapid growth in the next few years. The growth of this market is mainly attributed to the increasing consumption of animal protein. According to the U.S. Department of Agriculture and Foreign Agricultural Service, global poultry meat consumption is expected to reach 101.2 million tons in 2020 from 93.6 million tons in 2018. Due to this, the demand for an adequate supply of essential nutrients for healthier growth of poultry is expected to rise significantly. This is further increasing the demand for feed additives. Besides, the increasing incidence of disease outbreaks in animals and growing demand for compound animal feed with higher nutrient content are also some of the major factors supporting the growth of the specialty feed additives market.
Based on animal type, the poultry segment commanded the largest share of the overall feed additives market in 2019. The large share of this segment is mainly attributed to the huge demand and production of broiler meat due to rapid economic growth, urbanization, and high incomes. In 2017, over 7.4 billion broiler chickens are slaughtered for meat in Europe, which produced over 12 million tonnes of broiler chicken meat (Source: Compassion in World Farming Organization). The common feed additives used in poultry diets include antimicrobials, antioxidants, emulsifiers, binders, pH control agents, and enzymes. The use of natural feed additive is gaining importance in poultry production due to the ban on the use of certain antibiotics, harmful residual effects, and cost-effectiveness.
Based on the source, the natural sources segment is expected to witness faster growth in the overall feed additives market during the forecast period of 2019-2027. The growth of this segment is mainly attributed to the growing use of naturally sourced feed additives to decrease the number of chronic diseases in livestock. Further, the increasing demand for organic meat & poultry products and rising awareness about consumption of the organic feed additives are supporting the growth of the natural feed additives market.
Geographically, the Asia-Pacific region is estimated to witness the rapid growth in the overall feed additives market during the forecast period. The rapid growth of Asia-Pacific is mainly attributed to the growing animal feed industry in the region. According to Alltech Global Feed Survey, in 2018, feed production in the Asia-Pacific region was increased by 3% over 2017, which is primarily due to increased pig and pet food production. Thus, the growing feed production in the Asia-Pacific region fuels the demand for feed additives for the enhancement of nutritional quality of feed. Further, the increasing production of animal protein in the region and growing incidences of counterfeit meat and other products are some of the major factors driving the demand for feed additives in the region.
The report also includes an extensive assessment of the key strategic developments adopted by the leading market participants in the industry over the past 3 years (2017-2019). The feed additives market has witnessed several new product launches, expansions, agreements, partnerships & collaborations, and acquisitions in recent years. For instance, in September 2019, DSM partnered with the International Egg Commission (IEC) to support sustainable egg production and to drive positive developments in the egg industry.
