Global Feed Amino Acids Market

Amino Acids have conventionally been the largest segment. The Global Feed Additives market has been accounted for US$XX Million and is expected to grow to US$XX Million by 2022, at a CAGR of XX% during the forecast period. Tremendous population growth over the years, growing demand for proteins worldwide and growing awareness about animal health and nutrition has made this emerging segment of the animal feed industry an dynamic one. Apart from increasing the cost of the final product, feed additives, like amino acids are a fundamental part of the animal feed and play an integral role in growth and reproduction of animals.

Market Dynamics:

Increasing number of the meat-consuming population, growing industrialization in the meat production business and changing food habits of customers, creating demand for meat with specific texture and flavor has indirectly increased the sales of feed additives, especially safer additives, like amino acids. Growing awareness against the excessive use of chemicals has caused governments to have stringent regulations, especially for imported foodstuff. This has restrained the exports from a large number of Feed producing countries, especially to the European Union.

Synthetic amino acids like Threonine, Lysine, and Methionine have been used since decades in the broiler feed industry. Also, a recent addition of essential amino acids and developments in their synthesis at an industrial level has helped in augmenting the industry.

A major hindrance to the growth of feed amino acids market is the price volatility associated with raw materials and the changing regulations among regions. In addition, the development of other sources of protein has made the market growth easier.

Market Segmentation:

The market of Amino Acid additives has been divided on the basis of type into Threonine, Lysine, Methionine, Valine, Leucine, Isoleucine, etc. Threonine holds the largest market share, followed by Methionine. Different animals show different requirements of amino acids. On the basis of animal type, the market is divided into Poultry, Pork, Fish and Cattle feed. The Poultry feed industry and the cattle feed industry currently consume the largest portion of the Amino Acids industry.

Geographical Analysis:
