Driver The surge in meat and animal product consumption in countries like China, India, and Japan has resulted in a growing requirement for feed additives. These additives provide animals with nutritional benefits and disease prevention, leading to increased profits for farmers. This industry's growth is expected to be significantly driven by the rising demand for primary feed minerals.
Restraint The supply chain of additives is the primary driver of raw material prices in the feed major minerals market. The growth of this market may be constrained due to a shortage of minerals and other raw materials worldwide, which has been witnessed during the COVID pandemic, leading to a slowdown in demand.
Trend The absorption and utilization of nutrients by an animal's metabolism, involving transportation, cellular uptake, and biochemical processes, are referred to as the bioavailability of minerals. However, due to environmental concerns, the use of trace elements in animal feed is limited, making it difficult for cattle farmers to improve feed conversion efficiency without adding more mineral supplements. To improve bioavailability and animal productivity, manufacturers are producing organic versions of inorganic trace elements like copper, zinc, selenium, and chromium. Farmers must educate themselves on organic mineral chelates to influence the market demand for mineral supplements.
