Animal Feed Organic Trace Minerals Market Size, Sector / Industry Report & Analysis, 2025 (Includes Business Impact of COVID-19)

                                          
Abstract, Snapshot, Market Analysis & Market Definition: Global Animal Feed Organic Trace Minerals Market


The global Animal Feed Organic Trace Minerals market size is projected to reach US$ 1022.83 million by 2026, from US$ 630.42 million in 2020, at a CAGR of 8.4% during 2021-2026. Rising demand from end-users owing to rising awareness regarding the harmful effects of consuming inorganic trace minerals containing heavy metal contaminants, is anticipated to drive the growth. Organic trace minerals are essential nutrients used in tiny quantities in animal feed.

Moreover, rising use of water-soluble natural feed-added substances, increasing meat consumption, and developing animal feed industry across the globe are factors encouraging the consumption of organic trace minerals. For instance, a shift in food consumption pattern, which comprise favoring proteins from animal sources, is playing a major role in the growth of meat consumption sector globally.

However, increasing outbreak of animal diseases such as Avian Influenza (AI) is estimated to hamper overall growth in near future. Poultry is one of the most vulnerable sectors to disease outbreaks. For instance, in 2015, over 48 million poultry birds, such as turkey and chicken, were hit by the AI outbreaks in U.S.

In addition, minimizing the after effects of such outbreaks is a major challenge faced by manufacturers and governing bodies worldwide. Increasing R&D activities to maximize specific functions of organic trace minerals are creating new opportunities for industrial development. For instance, using zinc to strengthen egg shells in poultry and copper for improving fertility of eggs.
