Global cattle feed market value was USD 74.8 billion in 2019. It is projected to grow at a compound annual rate (CAGR), of 3.2% between 2020 and 2027. Globally, the market has been positively impacted by the industrialization of cattle products such as meat and milk products. Market growth was driven by increased consumer awareness regarding the safety of meats and milk products as well as the nutritional content of the food. You can divide cattle into mature and young ruminants. The additives used depend on the age of the ruminants. They include vitamins, amino acids, feed acidifiers and antibiotics as well as feed enzymes, antioxidants and other nutrients. Vitamin A and mineral packs such as Availa-4 and 20-10 Plus Mineral can be used to increase immunity, reproduction, vision, and decrease cattle's deficiencies. Cattle feed is primarily composed of fodder, legumes and grasses. It also includes hay, dry forages, and silage. The market is expected to grow because of rising demand for feed that adds nutritive value to cattle and increases efficiency.
Covid-19's emergence in Wuhan, the capital of Hubei province has had a significant impact on the demand for ingredients and additives. China is a major source of raw materials in the region. Transport restrictions between China and the country made it difficult for vital ingredients such as soybean meal to be delivered to cattle farms. Despite China lifting the ban on the transport of essential products from China, the problem for manufacturers is still to get their products out.
China is home to the majority of the world's ingredients, including Vitamin B & D and lysine. Due to delays in exports and disruptions in shipping, the pandemic has impacted the largest product consumers in North America as well as Europe. Due to supply chain disruptions, this also led to a price rise. The global ease in restrictions on essential commodities is expected to increase product demand.
In 2019, corn was the most important ingredient segment and accounted more than 25% of global revenue share. Major grain producers like Cargill, Inc., and BASF SE are integrated along the value chains to supply feed ingredients, serve as comprehensive suppliers to manufacturers, and lower sourcing and logistic costs. Charoen Pokphand, Alltech and Alltech are a few companies that have been integrated backwards to produce raw materials (feed grain) and end products, which helps to reduce raw material costs.
Consumer awareness about the diseases that livestock can contract, such as foot and mouth, is increasing. This has led to increased use of quality feed ingredients. The market growth is likely to be slowed by the oversupply of major grains such as wheat, barley, and maize from other commercial uses, such biofuel or food industries. However, the current market has seen a significant increase in partnerships and M&A between market participants. This is expected to boost the brand portfolio and gain access to regional markets. It also provides appropriate benefits which will help to stimulate product demand.
Cysteine, methionine and lysine are some of the most commonly used amino acids in animal feed additives. Lysine is an amino acid that forms the building blocks of protein in the animal's body. Animals are not capable to produce enough of this amino acid so it must be supplemented or ingested. Methionine, an essential amino acid that is also a powerful antioxidant, is crucial for detoxification and animal liver health. It helps animals prevent nail and skin problems. This amino acid is sometimes called grass saver because it is added to dog food to lower the pH. The amino acid will be in high demand by the cattle feed industry over the forecast time as a feed supplement.
Different participants manufacture and distribute feed additives in different ways. These industry players sell additives directly to consumers through their brands, or supply feed additives for integrated feed producers. The market is constantly developing thanks to recurring regulatory updates and increasing R&D expenditure. The market will open up for other products as a result of the U.S. and European restrictions on antibiotic use.
In 2019, the dairy segment made up more than 54% of global revenue. According to the United Nations Food & Agriculture Organization, 55% of global revenue was accounted for by dairy products. By 2050, 70% will be accounted for beef products. The growth of this segment can be attributed largely to the increasing demand for milk and dairy products in emerging economies. This has led to an increase in industrialization of cattle raising.
Due to rising demand and increased competition, the value of American cattle and calf production is increasing rapidly since 2010. Manufacturers are open to product innovation and offer customized products for beef and dairy applications. In September 2018, Kemin Industries and Micronutrients launched Intellibond Vital 5CR, which contains six essential trace minerals to support beef and dairy cattle performance and health.
North America dominated the market, accounting for 34% of global revenue in 2019. The market will be driven by increasing meat consumption in the U.S. and strict regulations about meat quality over the next few years. The market will be boosted by the easy availability of raw materials such as maize, dextrose and other cereals in the region. Asia Pacific will experience the fastest CAGR between 2020 and 2027. China and India have seen a rapid increase in cattle inventories since the past decade, due to high populations and significant increases in meat consumption. This has led to a higher demand for cattle feed.
Spain and Germany were the two most important markets in Europe. Europe's market growth will be supported by the presence of 330 German feed mills. Spain's largest driver of cattle feed production is pork and cattle, which together account for more than 65% of total animal feed consumption. Market growth will be positively influenced by free trade agreements between the region and the European Union countries over the forecast period.
Global market is highly competitive and fragmented, with the largest companies holding the majority of market share. Industry participants will be affected by the introduction of customized products, application development, and expansion of distribution channels. A lot of industry players are involved in mergers and acquisitions to diversify their product portfolio, increase market share and enhance their regional presence, especially in unorganized markets like India, Brazil, China, and China.
