* Feed Amino acids - methionine methionine (mĕthī`ənēn), organic compound, one of the 20 amino acids commonly found in animal proteins. Only the L-stereoisomer appears in mammalian protein. , lysine lysine (lī`sēn), organic compound, one of the 20 amino acids commonly found in animal proteins. Only the l-stereoisomer appears in mammalian protein. , threonine threonine (thrē`ənēn), organic compound, one of the 22 α-amino acids commonly found in animal proteins. Only the l-stereoisomer appears in mammalian protein. , and tryptophan tryptophan (trĭp`təfăn), organic compound, one of the 20 amino acids commonly found in animal proteins. Only the l-stereoisomer appears in mammalian protein.  

* Feed Vitamins - vitamin A (retinol retinol: see Vitamin A under vitamin. ), vitamin E (tocopherol tocopherol: see vitamin. ), vitamin B1 (thiamin thiamin
 or vitamin B1

Organic compound, part of the vitamin B complex, necessary in carbohydrate metabolism. It carries out these functions in its active form, as a component of the coenzyme thiamin pyrophosphate.
), vitamin B3 (niacin), and vitamin D3 (cholecalciferol cholecalciferol /cho·le·cal·ci·fer·ol/ (ko?le-kal-sif´er-ol) vitamin D; a hormone synthesized in the skin on irradiation of 7-dehydrocholesterol or obtained from the diet; it is activated when metabolized to 1,25-dihydroxycholecalciferol. )

Market Overview

Rise in Meat Consumption Likely to Drive Growth in the Animal Feed Additives Market

The need for feed additives is related to animal feed production and therefore the consistent demand for meat and dairy products is expected to drive growth of this market in Australia and New Zealand. Despite challenges in this market, such as stringent regulatory procedures that delay registration of feeds and increasing competition that reduces profit margins for feed additive suppliers, the overall rise in meat and poultry consumption is likely to impact the market positively.

"According to the Australian Bureau of Agricultural and Resource Economics The Australian Bureau of Agricultural and Resource Economics (ABARE), is located in Canberra, Australia. ABARE, established in 1945,[1] is an Australian government economic research agency, it is also involved in commercial consultancy.  (ABARE ABARE Australian Bureau of Agricultural and Resource Economics ), the per capita consumption for poultry meat is estimated to increase from 38.0 kg in 2005 to 39.0 kg in 2010 and beef consumption from 36.7 kg in 2005 to 37.8 kg in 2010," explains the analyst. "In New Zealand, domestic demand is characterized by an increase in poultry meat consumption." This is likely to impact all sectors of the animal feed market positively. In addition, scientific studies that discuss technical and economic benefits of feed additives, such as phytase enzyme and prebiotics, are bound to boost revenues and result in further advancements in this market.

Concerns Regarding Antimicrobial Resistance to Drive Demand for Alternatives

With the ongoing debate over antimicrobial resistance and its effect on human beings, alternatives to antimicrobial growth promoters are likely to gain R&D funding support and consequent volumes of uptake by end users. For example, under the Commercial Ready Scheme, AusIndustry awarded a $2.1 million grant to BioDiem, an Australian biopharmaceutical development company working on a non-antibiotic antimicrobial, to enhance growth and feed conversion in chickens.

The most prominent alternatives that are likely to gain at the expense of antimicrobials are feed enzymes, direct-fed microbials, feed acidifiers and essential oils.
