Feed Processing Market: Insights

The most essential and determining factor in animal development is nutrition. In addition to enhancing the mixing and stability of their diet, feed processing requires grinding down the physical structure of the feed items in such a manner that it results in optimal use by animals. When compared to coarse or whole feed products, the finely processed feed particles are faster digested. This process aims to increase feed digestibility and bioavailability. Feed processing not only improves the quality of the feed but also minimizes feed degradation. Improved feed conversion or production, improved carcass quality or yield grade, faster average daily benefit, decreased feed waste, increased feed consumption, and several other goals are popular in feed processing. Compared to the number of techniques used for ruminant feeds, the feed preparatory processes used for swine and poultry are comparatively basic and limited.

It is anticipated that the rise in demand and usage of livestock-based products such as beef, eggs, dairy, and dairy products would push the market for feed among farm animals.Global meat production is expected to increase by 2025, as per FAO numbers. Because of its high demand, low production costs, and lower commodity rates in both developed and developing economies, poultry meat is the main factor boosting global meat production growth.

Among the aquafeed producers worldwide, the growth of aquaculture has also drawn a lot of interest. The availability of nutrient and feed inputs will have to rise at a comparable pace for the aquaculture sector to sustain its existing growth rate, while the supply of aquatic materials remains stagnant and other sectors compete for the same feed supplies.The stable growth of aquaculture, as well as the demand for some more feed, especially for tilapia and catfish, attracted attention among most local suppliers in processing their feeds instead of buying a full fish feed. This, in essence, allows small-scale farmers to build equipment for feed processing. Feed processing machinery demand is growing in the country as compounded feed costs increase and farmers become more aware of the advantages of using feed processing equipment.

Market consolidation, on the other hand, is a significant limiting factor for the feed processing sector, as prominent feed processors are implementing inorganic strategic initiatives, which is the primary cause of market consolidation.

Feed Processing Market: By Type

Based on type, the market is categorized into pelleting, mixing, conditioning & expanding, cleaning & sorting, grinding, dosing & batching, cooling & drying, testing & analysis, extrusion, and others (bulk storage equipment and bagging & warehousing). The highest market share was accounted for by conditioning & expanding in 2020. Most animals have a poor ability to digest starch, but ripe starch can be digested to a significant extent. The degree of gelatinization of starch increases significantly when a hydrothermal through conditioner is used. Around the same period, the thermal denaturation of protein in a product is encouraged. Conditioning food items at a certain amount of temperature will destroy bacteria like Salmonella and ensure the consistency of feed hygiene. Low cost, pollution-free, no drug residual, and fewer side effects than drug-disease control are just a few of the advantages that have enhanced the implementation of conditioning and expanding machinery.

Feed Processing Market: By Form of Feed

Based on the form of feed, the market has been categorizedintocrumbles, mash, pellets, and others (liquid, cakes, and cubes). The maximum market share in 2020 was accounted for by pellets. The advantages of pelleted feed, such as improved feed intake and animal weight gain, are driving the market for feed pelletizing. Pellet production is increasing considerably as a result of the growing demand for nutritional feed, which is also enhancing company investments in the animal feed pellet processing sector. Besides, minimizing wastage during the feeding process, supplying overall mixed nutrients in each pellet, improving storage space, reducing shipping costs, and improving feed handling are some of the advantages that have spurred animal pallet adoption.Furthermore, growing knowledge of the product's performance in emerging regions has provided an incentive for market expansion.

Feed Processing Market: By Mode of Operation

Based onthe mode of operation, the market is segregated into manual, semi-automatic, and automatic. In 2020, the manual had the highest market share. The manually operated feed pelleting machines are planned and manufactured with readily sourced materials, making them very cheap. No highly specialized know-how is required for the manual mode of operation.The extrusion barrel, hopper, sprout (gravity chute) knife cutter,bearing housing, pulley,crankarm, compression plate, flat die, screw auger, and supporting frame are the key components of the device. Parameters such as percentage of mechanical damage, pelleting efficiency, throughput capacity, percentage of feed loss, decide the productivity of the manually operated system.

Feed Processing Market: By Livestock

Based on livestock, the market is bifurcatedintoswine, ruminant, poultry, others (pets, aquatic animals, and equine). In 2020, the poultry segment dominated for the greatest market share. Amongst others, poultry meat is one of the largest, such as pork, beef, and fish meat. In the poultry feed market, thus, a huge opportunity lies. Companies are making big investments in the manufacture of advanced feed equipment technology for the processing of high-quality poultry feed in different types.The manufacturing method of poultry feed is typically divided into phases such as the receiving and washing of feed raw materials, the grinding, batching, blending, pelleting, and packing of final feed products.

Feed Processing Market: By Region

Over the projection timeframe, the Asia Pacific region is predicted to have the biggest proportion of the feed processing market revenue, followed by Europe. Several of the top-10 feed-producing nations are based in Asia-Pacific, including Japan, India, and China. China retains its status as the world's top feed manufacturer, with a 10-million-metric-ton advantage over the United States.

The Asia Pacific retained its strong position in the global feed processing machinery industry, owing to the region's leading feed producing countries and a huge proportion of feed manufacturers. Because of a rise in economic growth and rapid progress, China remains the primary feed producer and consumer of feed processing machinery.The increasing attention of domestic feed processing machinery firms, technical advances, and government incentives for mechanization due to the growing population are the main drivers for the market.

There are three nations in North America: the USA, Canada, and Mexico.This region's stability is a product of its closely developed economies. In terms of revenue, the industry is showing steady growth. The United States controls the economy of the North American region due to its widely diversified manufacturing industry.
