Growth Opportunities in the Feed Premix Market

The global Feed Premix Market size is estimated to be valued at USD 24.3 billion in 2021 and is projected to reach a value of USD 32.9 billion by 2026, growing at a CAGR of 6.2% during the forecast period. The growth of this market is attributed to the increasing demand for meat and meat products across the globe.

COVID-19 Impact on the Feed premix:

COVID-19 impact on the feed premix is low to moderately affected.  However, the rising health concerns and fears associated with the consumption of animal meat due to the COVID-19 outbreak are projected to increase market prospects. The feed premixes aid in boosting the immunity of animals; hence, the addition of such nutritional additives in the feed will lead to an increase in demand for feed premixes. Countries across regions are coping with the impacts of COVID-19, which thus causes the feed premixes market to be projected to grow at a much lower rate in the coming years.

Restraint: Ban on antibiotics in different countries

Antibiotics have been used in feed for decades; however, in 2006, the European Union (EU) banned the use of antibiotics in feed as growth promoters, as microbes developed resistance to antibiotics, which are used to treat human and animal infections. Following the ban by the EU, the use of antibiotics declined in many countries around the globe, especially in countries such as China, India, and the US, due to their overexploitation or misuse.

Restriction on the use of antibiotics, as a growth promoter in feed, in many countries, forced companies to stop using antibiotics in feed premixes. This acts as a major restraint for manufacturers that offer antibiotic-based feed premixes.

Asia Pacific is the fastest-growing market during the forecast period in the global Feed premix

The key markets in the Asia Pacific region include China, India, Japan, Australia & New Zealand, Thailand, Vietnam, others, and the Rest of Asia Pacific.

The Asia Pacific region accounted for the largest share of 35.6% of the global feed premix market in 2020, in terms of value. The market in the region is driven by the presence of a large livestock population

(FAO 2016) and their growth rate. Furthermore, the region has witnessed an increase in the number of feed mills and feed production, particularly in India and Japan. This increase in the number of feed mills in the region reflects the growth in feed production. According to the Alltech Feed Survey of 2018, the region experienced a 7% increase in its feed production, from 356.5 million tons in 2012 to 381.1 million tons in 2017. The largest feed producer, China, contributes significantly to the region’s leading position, with Thailand and Indonesia being the emerging feed-producing countries, while India and Japan are demonstrating constant growth in feed production. According to the same source, among the top 20 feed companies in the world, 16 of them are based in the Asia Pacific region, which makes this a highly competitive market.

Recent Developments

• In October 2020, DSM completed the acquisition of Erber Group (Austria) for an enterprise value of EUR 980 million (USD 1.16 Billion). The transaction excludes two smaller units in Erber Group. DSM acquired Erber Group’s Biomin and Romer Labs. Erber Group’s specialty animal nutrition and health business Biomin specializes primarily in mycotoxin risk management and gut health performance management, whereas the Romer Labs business focuses on food and feed safety diagnostic solutions. Thus, this would enhance DSM’s animal health & nutrition business in the global market.
• In May 2019, Bayer Animal Health GmbH (Germany) and Nutreco formed an agreement to collaborate for the development of animal health and animal nutrition industries.
