Industry Trends and Drivers:

Surging Global Demand for Animal Protein:

The demand for meat, dairy, and poultry has been increasing because of the growing population and change in dietary patterns. According to the India Brand Equity Foundation (IBEF), the overall market for domestic airlines has grown to 112.86 million (Jan to Sept 2023) from 87.42 million passengers, a 29.10% increase compared to the same period last year, reflecting growth in the economy and demand for protein. Several important trends have influenced livestock systems, such as changing consumer demands for low-priced animal-sourced foods and a higher level of efficiency to reach market weight. Modern consumers also demand a more consistent quality and safety of protein sources and apply pressure on livestock systems to develop and apply scientific methods of feed formulation.

Precision Nutrition and Advanced Feed Technologies:

With precision nutrition, feed companies are producing feeds that are better suited for the animals based on the animals' life stages. With improved accuracy in nutritional requirements, efficiency is seen through an improved feed conversion ratio and decreased wastage. Newer additives such as probiotics, amino acids and feed acidifiers are playing a vital role in improving gut health. Thereby assisting animals to utilize nutrients and grow faster with lesser feed. Farmers can select feeds that are more accurately prescribed to their particular herds, seeking optimum performance for their specific breeds, their specific production systems, and their specific local conditions than ever before.

Intensive Farming Systems and Commercial Production:

This trend toward intensive farming systems is directly impacting the animal feed industry. Commercial farmers, especially in developed countries, are seeking a feed source that will produce predictable, optimal growth and production. Pelleted animal feed makes up a large portion of the animal feed industry in the United States. Pelleting improves feed efficiency and nutrient digestibility. Pelleting improves feed conversion and digestion, and for large commercial operations pelleting is a principal method of feed processing. The shelf life of feed pellets and their reduced likelihood of contamination are key factors in operations with thousands of animals. This industrialized system creates a continuing demand for high-quality, scientifically formulated, feed.

Sustainable and Environmentally Responsible Feed Production:

Concern about the environmental effects of livestock production has spurred the development of alternative feedstuffs that have the potential to improve the sustainability of livestock production (particularly in the pig industry, which is increasingly focused on developing more environmentally sustainable feed). The greater livestock industry is also moving towards sustainable practices. Farmers are being economically pressured by the public and by regulators to reduce the environmental impact of agriculture. Animal feed manufacturers have designed feeds to produce the same quantity of animals with renewable inputs and have reduced livestock greenhouse gases and water inputs. People are now more aware of these factors, and as a result, the amount of high-quality feed products from sustainable or ethical production systems has increased.
