Vitamins are extensively utilized as additives in animal feed formulations. They act as an effective protection against viruses, parasites, and bacteria. Some of the prominent vitamins used as feed additives include riboflavin, Vitamin D, Vitamin A, Vitamin K, and Vitamin E. Additional supplements infused with vitamins to provide optimal nutrition are also added to livestock feeds. Thus, the aforementioned factors are anticipated to fuel the demand for vitamin additives in the animal feed market.
Poultry Feed Market Growth & Trends
The global poultry feed market size is likely to be valued at USD 238.9 billion by 2025, growing at a CAGR of 4.5% over the forecast period, as per a new report by Grand View Research Inc. This can be attributed to the rising demand for poultry farming products such as chicken meat and eggs globally.
Poultry is considered as one of the most economical sources of protein, therefore, poultry products such as egg and meat are consistently witnessing growth in their demand. The market is likely to witness strong growth owing to increasing demand for protein-rich diet and increased production of feed across North America. The presence of well-established industry is another major driver triggering the product demand and, in turn, the overall market growth.
The market is fragmented and competitive with the presence of major global players. In the U.S., nearly 35 companies (federally inspected) are engaged in raising, marketing, and the processing of chicken. These companies are vertically integrated throughout the poultry value chain to ensure the quality of feed product.

Cattle Feed Market Growth & Trends
The global cattle feed market size is anticipated to reach USD 96.2 billion by 2027 expanding at a CAGR of 3.2%, according to a new report by Grand View Research, Inc. Growing concerns of farmers regarding the yield and cattle health have resulted in high demand for high-quality ingredients and additives across the globe. According to the Veterinary Feed Directive (VFD), antibiotics in feed without a prescription from VFD should be avoided owing to infectious agents present in them.
Thus, as a replacement, ingredients like ionophores, prebiotics, probiotics, and enzymes are used as feed additives. Ionophores like Rumensin and Bovatec improve feed efficiency and reduce the risk of bloat and acidosis. XPC, Fermenten are some of the major products used to enhance productivity, minimize infections, and provide better immune to cattle. Thus, the cattle feed segment has tremendous growth opportunities due to a rise in the customization of meat and dairy products.
Swine Feed Market Growth & Trends
The global swine feed market size is expected to reach USD 135.7 billion by 2025, accelerating at a CAGR of 3.5% over the forecast period, according to a new report by Grand View Research, Inc. Focus on improving the overall quality of pork has been a critical factor, which is triggering the demand for the product.
Increasing awareness among consumers concerning the quality of pork is compelling swine farmers to utilize additives that keep swine healthy as well as immune to diseases and disorders. Also, the use of enhanced additives is expected to reduce the occurrence of infections as well as illnesses in swine, thereby contributing to the increasing demand for the product worldwide.
Aquafeed Market Growth & Trends
The global aquafeed market size is expected to reach USD 102.3 billion by 2030, registering a CAGR of 4.4% over the forecast period, as per the new report by Grand View Research, Inc. The growth is majorly driven by the rising consumption of aquafeed by species like carp, catfish, salmon, and shrimps, among others due to its rich protein content. The future of the global market is dependent on the increasing acceptance of aquafeed, which contains essential oils, feed acidifiers, natural extracts, and palatants, which are important for aquaculture species in their overall growth across each stage of development. The widespread fish mortality due to various infections, which are caused by parasites is driving the product demand. These feed products are consumed by various fish species, such as catfish, salmon, trout, tilapia, shrimps, largemouth bass, and eel.
