Market Overview

Cost and Environmental Benefits of Animal Feed Additives to Drive Market Expansion

The steady rise in the consumption of meat protein such as chicken meat and pork pork, flesh of swine prepared as food, one of the principal commodities of the meatpacking industry. Pork has long been a staple food in most of the world, although religious taboos have limited its use, especially among Jews and Muslims.  in Southeast Asia Southeast Asia, region of Asia (1990 est. pop. 442,500,000), c.1,740,000 sq mi (4,506,600 sq km), bounded roughly by the Indian subcontinent on the west, China on the north, and the Pacific Ocean on the east.  is resulting in increasing demand for animal feed in the region. This in turn is driving demand for animal feed additives, such as amino acids, feed acidifiers and feed enzymes. Besides improving the nutritional quality of animal feed, these additives assist in enhancing animal growth and well-being. Moreover, consumers are displaying increasing concern over food safety issues. Hence, the growing emphasis on the quality of ingredients used in the production of animal feed is contributing to the growth of the animal feed additives market.

Rising awareness of the benefits of animal feed additives among veterinarians Veterinarians and veterinary surgeons (vets) are medical professionals who operate exclusively on animals. Well-known and notable veterinarians include:

"The future of the Southeast Asian animal feed additives market will be dominated by the non-antibiotic growth promoter A person who devises a plan for a business venture; one who takes the preliminary steps necessary for the formation of a corporation.

European Community
 (EU) ban on the use of antibiotics as growth promoters, acidifiers are expected to emerge as suitable alternatives, offering significant growth potential, particularly in countries with large volumes of poultry poultry, domesticated fowl kept primarily for meat and eggs; including birds of the order Galliformes, e.g., the chicken, turkey, guinea fowl, pheasant, quail, and peacock; and natatorial (swimming) birds, e.g., the duck and goose.  export to the EU." Overall, benefits such as reduction in costs of animal feed and lower environmental pollution associated with the livestock industry will drive continued market development.

Growth to Rely on Increased Customer Awareness and Improved Product Efficacy

 products remains low among end users," remarks the analyst. "Limited knowledge of the usage of these additives and the conservative approach of end users who are cautious in introducing new additives into the animals' diet are likely to restrict growth prospects." In addition, the abundance of cheap, generic products available is providing stiff competition to market participants The term market participant is used in United States constitutional law to describe a U.S. State which is acting as a producer or supplier of a marketable good or service. When a state is acting in such a role, it may permissibly discriminate against non-residents. , particularly multinational companies that are active in the market.

Despite these restraints, significant progress is expected in the feed acidifiers and feed enzymes segments, while the feed antibiotics segment is unlikely to demonstrate much growth potential. The introduction of new products, which offer ease of handling, price competitiveness, stability and greater efficacy, are essential to achieve improvements over existing products. Besides, success will also depend on accelerated investments in advertising and promotional activities as well as enhanced efforts to conduct validation See validate.
