Global Africa Livestock Surface Disinfectant Market by Livestock (Pig, Cattle) and Region (North America, Latin America, Europe, Asia Pacific and Middle East & Africa), Forecast To 2028

Summary of the Report

Africa's livestock surface disinfectant market was worth USD 65.0 millions in 2018. It is expected to grow at 6.3% CAGR over the forecast period. The market is expected to grow in Africa due to growing awareness of farmers about animal diseases and a rising demand for stockyard disinfectants. In the coming years, the demand for livestock disinfectants will increase due to an increasing number of farms and increased awareness about animal cleanliness.

Due to rising disposable income, rapid urbanization and increased livestock production in Africa, the market will experience a surge of growth. This is due to the dependence of the region's economic sector on agriculture, including livestock. The market is expanding due to the adoption of new technologies by manufacturers for the production livestock surface disinfectants that are more efficient. These factors will have a positive effect on Africa's livestock surface disinfectant market.

The demand for livestock disinfectants is expected to rise in Africa due to high living standards and increased awareness of hygiene and preventative healthcare. Farmers are now adopting intensive farming methods due to rising demand for meats and other meat products. This will create an environment that is highly susceptible to disease in farms. It is expected to increase demand for disinfectants in Africa's animal farming sector.

The market is moving towards biodegradable and environment-friendly livestock surface disinfectants. Manufacturers are also keen to produce biodegradable livestock surfaces disinfectants. BIEAU GCV offers EcoClearProx which is a biodegradable disinfectant that uses hydrogen peroxide (H2O2) as a solution. It is one of the most eco-friendly disinfectants on the market. This will increase the penetration of biobased/green disinfectants in the future.

Chemical Insights

Hypochlorite is the most preferred chlorine disinfectant available in both solid (calcium hypochlorite and sodium dichloroisocyanurate) and liquid (sodium hypochlorite) forms. Hypochlorite is capable of eliminating both enveloped and non-enveloped viruses if used at the correct contact time.

Surface disinfectants are used to treat a variety of diseases or infections in animals with quaternary ammonium compounds and phenols. They are very effective against bacteria and viruses, making them the most popular chemicals used in livestock surface disinfectants. These compounds contain phenols and quaternary ammonium compounds. They are effective against both Gram- and Gram+ viruses.

You can mix stabilized hydrogen peroxides with quaternary or iodophors. You can also mix them with peracetic acids in high concentrations for high-level disinfection. Vaporized hydrogenperoxide is an efficient oxidizing agent that can be used to eliminate animal viruses like Newcastle disease and Avian Influenza from surfaces and equipment.

Form Insights

Liquid surface disinfectants can be used to treat a variety of microorganisms, including those that cause enteric and respiratory infections as well as wounds. Farmers in Africa use these products in their daily hygiene routines because of their persistent residual activity which greatly regulates the transmission and spread of infection.

One of the most prominent liquid disinfectants in livestock farming is sodium hypochlorite. It is an aqueous solution containing 4% to 66% sodium hypochlorite. This is easily available in bleach form and is not affected by water hardness. It is quick-acting, inexpensive, and low in toxicity. This liquid disinfectant can be used to treat infections in livestock and reduce the risk of many diseases.

Bleaching powder is used to sterilize water supplies, and disinfect animal houses or stockyards in the event of an outbreak of disease. Quaternary ammonium compounds can be used to disinfect dairy utensils and udder, as well as towels for wiping the udders and hands of milkers. The most widely used powder disinfectant in Africa is Virkon. It provides safety against various types of microorganisms.

Livestock Insights

Cattle can contract infection from contact with infected animals, such as cattle that have been transported in stressful situations or in a stockyard change. Due to lack of disinfection or buildup of infectious agents, calf and beef units can be susceptible to several diseases. These problems can be overcome by planning downtime throughout the year for cleaning and disinfection. Hydrogen peroxide and isopropyl alcohol are used to clean minor cuts and abrasions on cattle's bodies, particularly bovines.

African swine are more susceptible to African swine flu, influenza, swine venereal disease, classic swine illness, and porcine respiratory syndrome and reproductive syndrome (PRRS). These diseases are commonly treated with surface disinfectants such as glutaraldehyde and detergents, alkalis and hypochlorites. These diseases can also impact the profitability and performance in the poultry industry. These diseases can be eliminated by using livestock surface disinfectants like glutaraldehyde or quaternary ammonium compound.

Due to the shift in consumer preferences from consuming a vegetarian diet to a diet rich in protein, poultry farming has become a very prominent business in Africa. In North Africa, the African poultry market is plagued by diseases like Avian Influenza and Newcastle Disease. Many farms in close proximity can be affected by the spread of Newcastle and influenza.

Country Insights

FAO states that Ethiopia has the highest livestock population in Africa due to its favorable climate for different livestock types. The country's most important livestock species are sheep, goat and cattle. The country's livestock production is impacted by the spread of many diseases. Ethiopia was the largest exporter of livestock surface disinfectant in 2018. The country's market growth can be attributed largely to the increase in cattle and swine farms. The increase in demand for product has been attributed to the increased presence of livestock disinfectant manufacturers and widespread African Swine Fever.

South Africa reported an outbreak in May 2019 of African swine flu in pigs. This fever is extremely contagious, and can cause hemorhagic fever in pigs. The South African government banned the export of pig meat and cattle to neighbouring countries. Over the forecast period, South Africa's decreased livestock production due to disease outbreaks will drive demand for livestock disinfectants.
