The ingredients generally include cereals, by products from mills and any other nutritional sources. By products from plants and animals and those which are not suitable for human consumption also find their way into animal feed. Ingredients which make the animals consume more feed or those which make them take food voluntarily are also included in the feed. Micronutrients required for the animals are also being manufactured in recent years.
Increasing food safety concerns, especially regarding the quality of meat and animal products, is the major factor driving the growth of feed ingredients markets. Increasing demand for nutritional feed for animals, rising number of animal infections, the thriving trend of nurturing companion animals, and requirements of farmers to increase the production as well as the rate of production of meat are expected to propel the market. However, stringent regulations on meat and its products by international agencies and a lack of awareness among many farmers regarding the feed requirements of the animals are restraining the market growth.
