Animal feed additives are substances which are added to made-up and stored feeds for
various purposes such as to control and prevent infectious diseases in animals, to enhance
rate of weight gain, ensure supply of vitamins and avoid deficiency, and enhance feed
digestibility. Thus feed additives maintain optimum health of livestock which are finally
consumed by humans. Major animal feed additives are antioxidants, amino acids, vitamins,
feed enzymes and acidifiers. These feed additives are blended with the feed in varying
quantities, depending on the livestock as well as the surrounding environment and its
impact on the animals.

The demand driving factors of the global animal feed additives market are
industrialization in meat production, increasing global demand for protein rich meat
products, increase in rate of global meat consumption, increased awareness towards meat
quality and safety, and outbreaks of livestock diseases. Major restraints of the industry
are raising raw material cost and regulatory structure. However, the increasing cost of
natural feed products is creating opportunities for the animal feed additives.
Environmental concerns and regulatory ban over some harmful additives are other
opportunities for animal feed additives. The manufacturers are developing innovative
production techniques to manufacture the product at lower cost and increase production
capacity.
