Organic Selenium Yeast for Animal Feed Market Analysis

The increasing demand for meat-based and dairy products has significantly transformed industrial livestock production. Livestock products account for 16% of energy and 34% of the protein in human diets. Moreover, livestock production accounts for ~19% of the food production and 30% of the global agriculture outcome in terms of value. Changing food preferences and lifestyles, increasing urbanization, growing disposable income, and the rapidly rising world population contribute to the elevated demand for livestock. The growing livestock population worldwide boosts the growth of the animal feed industry, which fuels the market growth.

Enhancing the selenium content of animals' diets boosts the productivity of their egg, meat, and milk production. More significantly, it raises these products' nutritional content and quality. Thus, with growing awareness regarding the benefits of organic selenium yeast, livestock owners are significantly using animal feed enriched with organic selenium yeast. Further, the preference for natural ingredients in animal feed due to their nontoxic and pesticide-free nature is projected to provide significant growth opportunities to the organic selenium yeast for animal feed market during the forecast period.

Organic Selenium Yeast for Animal Feed Market Overview

Selenium is one of the important trace minerals for livestock animals and pets. It helps improve the reproduction and overall performance of animals. Strict quality control, specific process development, and proper yeast strain selection are necessary for producing concentrated, high-quality selenium yeast. Approximately 100 distinct organic selenium compounds can be produced from a considerable amount of inorganic selenium by properly selected yeast strains. The addition of a suitable dose of selenium at the appropriate time is critical. If the added dose exceeds the limit, the yeast will not be able to grow to its full potential. After the yeast has reached its optimal growth, it is carefully cleaned and harvested by centrifugation, and the selenium-enriched yeast cream is further processed to inactivate the yeast cells and finally dried in a drum dryer. Organic selenium yeast enables significant supply of selenium which improve egg production in poultry, supports metabolism and reproduction, improve meat quality, and enhance eggshell quality. Increasing organic selenium yeast among animal feed manufacturers and livestock breeders due to the rising awareness of its benefits is significantly driving the market.

Organic Selenium Yeast for Animal Feed Market Drivers and Opportunities

Growth of the Animal Feed Industry

The rising livestock production and growing demand for meat and other animal-based goods drive the demand for animal feed. The Food Agriculture Organization (FAO) projects that animal protein production will increase by 1.7% (roughly) yearly. The International Feed Industry Federation's Annual Report 2020–2021 states that compound animal feed production surpassed one billion tons annually in 2020. Worldwide, the annual production of commercial animal feed is valued at over US$ 400 billion. Furthermore, global feed volume rose by 1% to about 1.2 billion tons. These stats show the significant growth of the animal feed industry. Thus, the growth of the animal feed industry drives the demand for feed additives, including organic selenium yeast, which boosts the organic selenium yeast for animal feed market.

Preference for Natural Ingredients Over Synthetic

Livestock farmers and pet owners seek proper nutrition for their animals to enhance their performance and productivity and fulfill their nutritional requirements. With rising awareness about clean-label animal nutrition products, livestock farmers and pet owners check the nutrients and ingredients included in supplements to ensure that the animals receive the most appropriate and beneficial nutrients. They search for products free of artificial additives, preservatives, and fillers. The increasing inclination toward a healthy diet and growing awareness regarding the benefits of natural ingredients in animals has upsurged the demand for animal feed infused with natural and organic nutrients.

The livestock animals who consume organically made food offer meat that has high nutritional value. Organic milk and meat are rich in various nutrients such as enzymes, bioflavonoids, and antioxidants. Hence, health-conscious consumers prefer organic meat over conventional as it does not contain pesticides. Due to the rising demand for organic meat and dairy products, the poultry sector, livestock farms, and animal husbandry have focused on purchasing high-quality organic feed products to supply organic meat to consumers. Thus, animal feed manufacturers are fortifying feed with organic nutrients to cater to the growing demand. Therefore, the preference for natural and organic ingredients over synthetic in animal feed is expected to create a huge opportunity for the market growth during the forecast period.
