Within the feed micronutrients sector, a notable trend is the rising demand for precision nutrition solutions, customized to meet the specific needs of livestock. This surge is primarily fuelled by advancements in animal health and productivity. According to the USDA, the global market has seen significant growth in recent years, with the U.S. alone reporting a 10% increase in feed micronutrient usage from 2020 to 2023. Companies are increasingly prioritizing sustainability, directing investments towards eco-friendly and organic sources for micronutrients. The sector is also witnessing a wave of innovations in micronutrient formulations, aimed at boosting bioavailability and overall efficacy.
Furthermore, a heightened focus on animal welfare, coupled with mounting regulatory pressures, is underscoring the need for stricter quality controls and enhanced traceability measures. Notably, companies are eyeing geographic expansions, with a pronounced interest in emerging markets, especially in Asia-Pacific and Latin America, where the appetite for premium animal feed is on the rise. The FAO reports that the demand for animal feed in these regions is expected to increase by 15% over the next five years.
