Executive Summary

Feed additives are products in animal nutrition designed to enhance the quality of animal food, as well as improve animal performance and health. They encompass a variety of chemicals, substances, or organisms aimed at increasing nutritional intake, absorption, and assimilation.

The primary types of feed additives include amino acids, phosphates, vitamins, acidifiers, carotenoids, enzymes, mycotoxin detoxifiers, flavors and sweeteners, antibiotics, and others. Amino acids are fundamental molecules that combine to form proteins. These additives are utilized in various livestock, such as poultry, ruminants, swine, aquatic animals, and others, and are available in both liquid and dry forms, derived from synthetic and natural sources.

The feed additives market research report is one of a series of new reports from The Business Research Company that provides feed additives market statistics, including feed additives industry global market size, regional shares, competitors with feed additives market share, detailed feed additives market segments, market trends, and opportunities, and any further data you may need to thrive in the feed additives industry. This feed additives market research report delivers a complete perspective of everything you need, with an in-depth analysis of the current and future scenarios of the industry.

The feed additives market size has grown strongly in recent years. It will grow from $18.25 billion in 2023 to $20.05 billion in 2024 at a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 7.5%. The growth in the historical period can be attributed to the expansion of livestock production, the emphasis on disease prevention, improvements in feed conversion efficiency, meeting nutritional requirements, and the increasing demand for meat consumption.

The feed additives market size is expected to see strong growth in the next few years. It will grow to $26.41 billion in 2028 at a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 7.1%. The growth in the forecast period can be attributed to a focus on animal welfare, the adoption of sustainable and organic farming practices, the integration of precision livestock farming, regulatory changes, and the overall growth in the global population. Major trends in the forecast period include technological advancements in feed additive production, the application of nutrigenomics in feed formulation, strategic partnerships and collaborations, an increased emphasis on regulatory compliance and transparency, and the digitalization of precision livestock farming.

The anticipated surge in meat and dairy product consumption is expected to drive the growth of the feed additives market. Feed additives, which aid in meeting animals' nutritional requirements, play a crucial role in enhancing the quality of animal feed and, consequently, the production of meat and dairy products. For example, a Government of Canada report stated that per capita meat consumption among Canadian consumers increased from Can$523.9 in 2017 to Can$601.1 in 2021, and it's projected to further rise to Can$723.1 by 2026. This trend is a significant driver behind the expansion of the feed additives market.

The expanding scale of feed production is anticipated to fuel the growth of the feed additives market. Within the agricultural or animal husbandry sector, 'feed' refers to nutritionally tailored food provided to domesticated animals. Feed additives, crucial for augmenting the quality and nutritional value of animal feed, significantly contribute to the animals' health and performance. As per the 2022 Alltech Agri-Food Outlook, international feed tonnage saw a 2.3% increase, reaching 1.235 billion metric tons in 2021. Key feed-producing nations such as China, the United States, Brazil, India, Mexico, and Spain demonstrated significant growth in the previous year, driving the feed additives market forward.

Prominent companies in the feed additives sector are actively innovating to fortify their market positions. For instance, in February 2021, Kemin Industries Inc., a US-based specialist in specialty ingredients across multiple industries including animal health, introduced KemTRACE Chromium-OR. This water-soluble, organic-compliant chromium propionate feed ingredient caters to swine, cattle, broiler, and horse diets. It offers benefits such as enhanced maintenance, reproduction, growth, and immunity in these animals. Additionally, it aids in better glucose utilization and mitigates stress impacts, thereby promoting increased cellular energy and function in the animals.

Major enterprises within the feed additives market are pursuing strategic collaborations to leverage microbiome technology for a transformative impact on their product offerings. This approach involves partnering to capitalize on each other's strengths and assets, aiming for mutual gains and accomplishments. As an illustration, Nutreco N.V., a Netherlands-based animal nutrition and fish feed manufacturer, revealed a long-term strategic alliance with BioMedIT, LLC, in January 2023. This partnership is geared toward the creation of innovative feed additives utilizing microbiome technology, addressing health and sustainability concerns in aquaculture, poultry, swine, and cattle farming. The agreement encompasses joint efforts in research, development, and commercialization of bioactives, utilizing BioMedIT's advanced microbiome research and bioinformatics platform, thus offering solutions that meet modern animal producers' needs.

In June 2022, Cargill Incorporated, a prominent US-based agribusiness and animal nutrition entity, successfully executed the acquisition of Delacon Biotechnik Ges.m.b.H. Although the financial specifics of the transaction remained undisclosed, this strategic move is anticipated to significantly enhance Cargill's product portfolio by integrating Delacon's expertise in feed additives. Through this acquisition, Cargill aims to strengthen its global presence and reinforce its commitment to producing more nutritious food. The integration of Delacon's capabilities is expected to amplify livestock and aquaculture performance while advancing animal health. Delacon Biotechnik Ges.m.b.H., based in Austria, specializes in manufacturing feed additives.
