Animal Feed Antioxidants Market Segment Analysis-By Product Type

The Animal Feed Antioxidants Market based on the product type can be further segmented into Natural (=Botanical extracts, Vitamins, and others), Artificial (=Butylated Hydroxyanisole, Propyl gallate, and others). The Artificial segment held the largest share in 2021. The broadening demand for antioxidants in animal feed can’t be just curved with natural antioxidants therefore artificial antioxidants are extracted at a wide scale from vegetables, and various other plant materials with the help of enzyme-assisted extractions, and ultrasound-assisted extractions. These synthetic antioxidants have become the first choice for various farm and poultry owners attributing to their steady nature, cost-effectiveness, and far-reaching availability. However, the natural antioxidants segment is estimated to be the fastest-growing with a CAGR of 5.2% over the forecast period 2022-2027. This growth is owing to side effects accompanied by the overuse of synthetic antioxidants. In many cases, antioxidants that are extracted through chemical process leaves adverse effects on animals’ liver and deteriorate their DNA. The PFA (natural or plant feed additives) and VitE have a similar effect in mitigating oxidative stress in both monogastric (i.e., pigs and rabbits) and ruminants under moderate stress conditions, which are frequent in intensive livestock farming. The influence of PFA on antioxidant enzyme activities can be dose- or method of administration-dependent.

Animal Feed Antioxidants Market Segment Analysis-By Livestock

The Animal Feed Antioxidants Market based on Conveyance Mode can be further segmented into Poultry, Dairy cattle, Aquaculture, Swine, and others. The poultry segment held the largest share in 2021. The growth is owing to the humungous use of poultry meat all across the globe.

Moreover, there has been seen a slight mutation in the nature of such viruses. It is being claimed that post mutation there is the possibility of animal to human transmission. To counter such threats farm owners are making use of several feed additives to ensure animal health in the first place. Moreover, swift increase in modernization and industrialization accelerating disposable income of people. Therefore, they are making more rational and healthy choices. Especially, if we consider developing economies there are around 670-680 million households as of now and the number is anticipated to witness a 2.5-3% overall increase by the year 2030, meaning more people are pulling out of poverty.
