The global market for feed supplements is expected to experience a growth rate of 5.5% during the 2023 to 2033 forecast period. According to this study published by Future Market Insights, the market value of feed supplements is anticipated to stand at US$ 3,100 million as of 2023. By the end of the aforementioned forecast period, sales are expected to total US$ 5,295 million. The feed industry is critical to ensure sustainable food production, with new developments continuing to add to the productivity, efficiency, environmental sustainability, and safety of production processes.
The 21st century is no doubt the age of the consumer. People today are highly conscious and selective about their food preferences, influencing their decisions on animal product purchases, including meat, eggs, and milk. They seek to question the way livestock owners rear their animals, especially what is being fed to them. From medicines to supplements, consumers are seeking to know whether the fodder these animals are fed has any detrimental effects on the human body.
As a result, farmers and livestock owners are looking to enrich animal fodder with feed supplements that are environmentally friendly, are free from any inorganic or harmful chemical additives, and raw materials which emit the least possible greenhouse gases during formulation. Using supplements free from any undesirable additives are also beneficial to overall animal health, increasing their lifespan and yielding good quality animal-based products.
Feeding a nutritious and balanced diet to animals is of utmost importance, as the global livestock industry continues expanding. As the global population expands, agriculture and farming are subsequently rising. According to statistics, livestock rearing accounts for 77% of global farming land. In the United States, for instance, cattle production accounts for the largest share of total cash receipts for agricultural commodities. As of 2022, it represented 17% of the total US$ 462 billion of cash receipts in the country. This is attributed to extensive beef consumption, accounting for nearly US$ 73 billion in cash receipts.
Likewise, on the personal front, feed supplements purchase is rising, as companion animal ownership rises. While Americans spend over US$ 50 billion per annum on their pets, India has the fastest-growing dog population globally. Furthermore, Norwegians spend roughly US$ 629 a year feeding their pet dogs, while 68% of New Zealanders own a pet. Naturally, owners need to ensure that their companions eat a healthy and balanced diet. Feed supplements are among the top 5 items on any individual’s list when it comes to pet food.
Seeing this increase in animal ownership, manufacturers are broadening their product portfolios with new and innovative feed offerings. Archer Daniels Midland (ADM), for instance, offers an extensive range of animal nutrition products. The ADM Animal NutritionTM wing offers high-quality feed products, supplements, premixes, custom ingredient blends, and specialty feed ingredients to aid in optimizing animal health and nutrition goals. The company’s innovative ingredient solutions and services help optimize performance, profitability, and efficiency opportunities for animal feed, aquaculture, and pet food producers.
On similar lines, GrainCorp Ltd. delivers customized feed solutions suitable for all farm systems. The company works alongside dairy farmers to help meet on-farm production, reproduction, performance, and profitability goals by incorporating high-quality feeds and the latest technical support tools designed to drive economic returns, whilst maximizing pasture utilization.
