The use of yeast derivatives for feed production is projected to remain high during the forecast period.
Beta-glucans, nucleotides, and mannooligosaccharides are the major yeast derivatives that exhibit efficient pathogen binding capacity, which restricts the growth of pathogens in the animal body. In addition, beta-glucans are the type of yeast derivatives that trigger the immune response in the animal body. The health benefits associated with the use of yeast derivatives as a feed additive increases its demand in the feed industry. Thus, the yeast derivative segment is projected to record the highest CAGR from 2018 to 2023.
The Saccharomyces Spp. segment is estimated to dominate the feed yeast market in 2018.
Saccharomyces Spp. such as Saccharomyces cerevisiae and Saccharomyces boulardii are majorly used for yeast production and is used as one of the most important ingredients in feed. With the increasing demand for natural growth promoters for animals, the preference for Saccharomyces Spp. has increased as it is considered to be one of the best sources for nutritional yeast. The Saccharomyces Spp. segment accounted for the highest share in the feed yeast market in 2017 and witnessed high demand for use in feed yeast production.
With the introduction of stringent regulations, Europe is estimated to dominate the feed yeast market in 2018.
The feed yeast market in Europe is driven by the introduction of stringent regulations pertaining to the use of antibiotics in feed. Increasing awareness about the benefits of feed yeast is projected to contribute to the market growth. The high demand for quality and nutrient-rich feed in the European countries has led to the high demand for feed yeast among farmers. Moreover, the European legislators are also concerned about food and animal safety and thus have implemented many safety laws for the same. With high concerns related to animal health, the EU government has put a ban on the use of antibiotic growth promoters in feed due to its negative impact on animal health as well as on the health of human consumers. For the replacement of those antibiotics, naturally-sourced feed ingredients that have antibiotic properties such as feed yeast were developed by manufacturers.

Agriculture is one of the largest industries in the Asia Pacific region, with a large share of farmland and good soil fertility. Moreover, the region is rich in plant diversity due to the wide variations in climate across countries. Even though there is a variation in the agriculture system from basic systems in India to the technically advanced ones in Japan, the agenda of food security is supported by local governments in the Asian countries. The Asia Pacific region is one of the leading consumers of pesticides across the globe, though the region mainly depends on imports of pesticide supply. Since inert ingredients are majorly consumed by pesticide manufacturers at the production facility during the formulation stage, and since countries such as India, Thailand, and Vietnam depend on imports for formulations, the market for inert ingredients is projected to be smaller compared to the Americas and Europe. However, with the increasing establishment of production plants in the Asian countries, the use of inert ingredients along with pesticide application is projected to increase in the future.

Biofertilizers Market Growth Factors, Application and Regions Analysis, & Forecast by 2022

The biofertilizers market is projected to grow at a CAGR of 14.08% during the forecast period, to reach a projected value of USD 2,305.5 Million by 2022. The demand for biofertilizers is completely dependent on the growth of the fertilizer industry. Furthermore, the shrinking arable land, adoption of new technology, and the increasing willingness of farmers to spend more for higher productivity are some important factors that contribute to the increasing demand for biofertilizers. The shortage in the supply of agricultural products in the last five years has resulted in an increase in their prices, and subsequently led to the increase in agricultural production. As a result, the demand for fertilizers has increased, which is expected to drive the demand for biofertilizers.

The biofertilizers market is driven primarily by the growth in the organic food industry and increase in awareness regarding the health hazards caused by the use of chemical fertilizers. Moreover, government agencies are promoting the use of biofertilizers, which has also driven the market growth, globally.
Cereals & grains require maximum biofertilizers for proper growth. Wheat, rice, corn, barley, and oats are the major cereal & grain crops cultivated extensively across the world. Farmers have begun using biofertilizers to replace chemical fertilizers, in order to sustain the soil nutrient generation cycle. This approach has increased the demand for biofertilizers, especially for cereal & grain cultivation.
Cyanobacteria contain naturally-occurring inputs such as solar energy, nitrogen, and water to ensure better soil fertility and plant growth. Cyanobacteria, through photosynthesis, fix nitrogen from the air and turn it into soluble form for plants. Cyanobacteria fix nitrogen, which is an essential nutrient for plant growth. Cyanobacteria are cost-effective and help increase soil fertility, which is one of the key factors leading to its dominance in the biofertilizers market.
The Asia-Pacific region holds a significant position in the global biofertilizers market, owing to factors such as growth of the organic food industry, and rise in farm expenditures. China and Brazil constituted the largest country-level markets in the Asia-Pacific and Latin American regions, respectively, in 2015. Government initiatives such as subsidies and incentive schemes, increase in awareness regarding the benefits of biofertilizers, and rise in farm expenditures have led to the large scale manufacturing of biofertilizers in these regions.

The feed acidifiers market was valued at USD 2.62 billion in 2017; it is projected to reach USD 3.50 billion by 2023, at a CAGR of 5.1% during the forecast period. Increasing government aid promoting the growth of the feed industry and the high threat of diseases in livestock are factors driving this market.

Make an Inquiry: https://www.marketsandmarkets.com/Enquiry_Before_BuyingNew.asp?id=163262152


The feed acidifiers market, by compound, has been segmented into blended compound acidifiers and single compound acidifiers. The blended segment is estimated to dominate the market in 2018 and is projected to grow at a higher CAGR by 2023. The use of these blended acidifier compounds is a new market development, with single compound acidifiers still being used widely. However, their usage has increased significantly over the years, making it the more prominent one among both. Blended acidifier compounds help reduce the presence of harmful microorganisms in feed, in addition to promoting beneficial microbial growth in the gut. Conversely, the addition of antibiotics inhibits the growth of any microorganisms, even if they are beneficial to the livestock.
The feed acidifiers market, by form, has been segmented into liquid and dry. It was dominated by the dry segment in 2018. Most companies in the feed acidifiers market offer their products in the dry form, due to its ease of usage, storage, and transportability. These products are widely used in feed formulations due to their free-flowing structure and their ability to provide consistency.
The South American market is projected to grow at the highest CAGR from 2018 to 2023. This growth is attributable to the development of the animal husbandry sector in the region that has promoted an increase in the consumption of feed additives such as acidifiers, rising income levels in emerging economies such as Brazil and Argentina which is supporting consumer inclination to better quality meat and other livestock products, rising demand for South American meat.
