The feed antioxidants are supplements of animal feed that can help to check oxidative rancidity hence improving the physical characteristics and shelf life of the feed and preserving the nutrient value. A process of oxidative rancidity results in the vulnerability of fats, vitamins, amino acids which are very vital to livestock productivity and quality. Antioxidants reduce the chances of this process thus helping the feed to maintain its energy value and palatability, the animals feed on thus leading to a balanced diet. The natural antioxidants found to be used in animal feed include, the fat soluble concentrated vitamin E and the water soluble vitamin C while the synthetic antioxidants include BHT and Ethoxyquin. Their application is crucial in the contemporary practices of animal breeding to improve growth, health status, and production characteristics of animals.

• The feed antioxidants market has rapidly developed in the past years, and the reason is very simple: the consumers started to pay more attention to the quality of animal feed and the effects of antioxidants on their animals. The world’s population has steadily increased and so has the consumption of meats and dairy products, underemployment of animals especially for food production requires good management practices. Oxidation is a cause of feed spoilage and it has to be prevented; through this antioxidants come in handy by slashing wastage, and providing fresh foods with nutrients to the animals. This has therefore resulted into a higher acceptance level of both natural and synthetic antioxidants in feeds. Also, increased government regulation and quality requirements in the food and feed industry have also boosted the application of antioxidants in feed safety and quality.
• To carry out market analysis, the market is divided into type, livestock, form, and regions. Tocopherols and carotenoids being natural antioxidant they are thus popular because of the perceived good health benefits as well as higher acceptance of natural compounds. Nevertheless, the synthetic antioxidants such as BHT and ethoxyquin are still widely used coming with the merits of being affordable and effective. The feed antioxidants consumers are the poultry and swine segments, which confirm the protein demand situation. In terms of geography, the major emphasis is on North America and Europe, due to improved production of livestock farming and higher consciousness among people. However, the region that is expected to post the higher growth rate is Asia-Pacific due to daily expansion of livestock production and development of feed industry. Market players are dedicated to the development of new products in the shape of novel antioxidant forms necessary for the modern animal feed market.

Feed Antioxidants Market Trend Analysis

Growing preference for natural antioxidants over synthetic ones

• One of the trends significant for the feed antioxidants market is the shift from the synthetic types of antioxidants to natural ones. This change is mainly occasioned by a rising awareness by the consumers as well as their rising demand for natural and organic foods which covers the livestock as well. The issue of synthetic additives in animal feed and its effects on the health of the animals, and persons who consume products from such animals is of paramount concern to the consumers. Therefore, natural feed attraction has increased, and few antioxidant ingredients such as tocopherols (vitamin E), carotenoids, and extracts from natural resources such as rosemary. These natural antioxidants are considered to be safer and more sustainable which is key characteristics in today’s world due to the Clean Label and Sustainability trends in the food industry. This trend is pressurizing feed manufacturers into conducting research aimed at improving on natural antioxidant solutions in terms of their efficacy and cost-effectiveness, which is in tandem with consumers and regulatory bodies’ changing demands.

Development and commercialization of customized antioxidant blends tailored to specific livestock needs and regional feed requirements

• One of the new trends in the feed antioxidants market refers to the creation of the new product line of the mixed feed antioxidants created taking into account the requirements of particular species of livestock and regional feed productions. As for animals, the level and the types of antioxidants related to their life processes (e. g. , growth, reproduction, lactation) are different. By coming up with line specific antioxidant solutions, there is a capacity to meet some of the problems that relate to farmers and feed producers for instance dealing with certain oxidation in specific regions or feeds.
• In these blends, such aspects like precision nutrition and data analytics can be employed to further boost the effectiveness of general and advanced training. Precision feeding entails the feeding of animals depending on the data collected from specific animals where optimum formulation of the feed is provided. Thus, using the approach combining existing precision nutrition with the development of individual antioxidant solutions for feed, highest-level feed manufacturers can cover animals’ needs maximally effectively and contribute to reducing farmers’ expenses. Thus, the given approach satisfies the increasing need for the consumption of highly specialized feed additives, as well as helps the companies expand into new segments, advancing their positions of animal nutrition market leaders and enhancing customers’ loyalty.

Feed Antioxidants Market Segment Analysis:

Feed Antioxidants Market Segmented on the basis of type, form, and animal type.

By Type, Synthetic segment is expected to dominate the market during the forecast period

• The synthetic segment is presumably to lead the total feed antioxidants market throughout the forecast period because of their effectiveness, inexpensive price, high stability and feed oxidation preventing qualities. Other synthetic antioxidants include butylated hydroxytoluene (BHT), butylated hydroxyanisole (BHA), and ethoxyquin, which are preferred especially because of their efficiency in preserving feed quality especially for a long time. While many of these compounds are effective, they are further from natural in activity and more regularly contributory to a dependable level of protection, which make them appealing to extensive-scale meat-producing corporations and feed companies.
• Also, the synthetic antioxidants have longer shelf life and higher thermal stability; therefore, its effectiveness does not change with storage and different processing conditions in the market. Hence, despite increasing awareness regarding natural antioxidants it is the synthetic feed antioxidants segment that has obtained a large market and big sales and is likely to dictate growth in the feed antioxidants market.

By Animal Type, Poultry segment expected to held the largest share

• Among the segments, the poultry segment will be dominating the feed antioxidants market share during the given time span because of the global consumption of poultry and eggs. The poultry farming however has become one of the fastest growing subsector of animal agriculture due to effective feed to meat conversion ratio and increasing demand for poultry products by the consumers. Used effectively to preserve feed quality, retain nutrients and to counter effects of oxidant in feeds, feed antioxidants are employed for maintaining bird’s health and production standard of poultry.
• Antioxidants assist in enhancing the palatability and nutritional quality of the poultry feed this is especially important in the growth, reproduction and general health of the birds. This shift has made the poultry producers to include both natural and synthetic antioxidants in poultry feed so as to satisfy the consumers’ demands as well as to produce more yields. Such high demand in the poultry segment plays a major role in the growth and supremacy of this segment in the feed antioxidants market.
