United States Feed Probiotics Market Trends
The United States poultry industry is one of the largest commercial food industry and increased consumption of meats and eggs is increasing the poultry production
- The US poultry industry is thriving due to the increasing demand for eggs and poultry meat in the commercial food industry and rising exports. The country is one of the largest egg producers and exporters globally, with the total egg exports in 2020 increasing by 9.3% to 3.5 billion eggs from the previous year and the export value growing by 2.4% to USD 189 million.
- The consumption of poultry meat in the United States improved due to favorable prices, rising awareness of a high-protein diet, and increasing demand for poultry meat. As a result, the poultry bird's headcount increased by 17.6 million in 2022 compared to the previous year. Raising chickens in small spaces and different environments makes poultry production more feasible and less expensive than beef and pork, attracting animal farmers with limited rearing areas to invest in poultry farms.
- However, the share of the US market is expected to decrease from 26% in 2021 to 24% in 2031 in terms of imports, which may affect the growth of the poultry feed market. The swine flu and trade disputes with China between 2018 and 2019 also contributed to the steady decrease in the poultry population during the historical period, as animal farmers were reluctant to increase rearing.
- Despite these challenges, the increasing consumption of meat and eggs, rising exports, and the growing poultry population are expected to drive the US feed additives market during the forecast period.

Presence of a large number of fish farms and feed mills is contributing to increasing feed production for aquaculture
- Aquaculture feed production in the United States increased by 4.1% in 2022 compared to 2017 due to a large number of feed mills, totaling 6,232 in the United States alone. The per capita seafood consumption increased from 21.88 kg in 2018 to 22.26 kg in 2022.
- Among the various aquaculture feed, fish held a major share, accounting for 83.2% in 2022, due to the increasing awareness of the benefits of fish, high demand in the international market, expansion of the retail sector, and the presence of a large number of fish farms in the country. Most fish farms are located in Ohio, and catfish is the most consumed fish as it can help convert pellet feed into pounds of fish.
- Shrimp accounted for 7.5% of the US aquaculture feed market in 2022, as it is the most consumed aquatic animal due to the rising demand for seafood and its high protein content. However, the country depends on other countries for shrimp, which affected its growth during the study period. On the other hand, other aquatic species have witnessed high growth as the demand for bivalves from restaurants increased after the COVID-19 pandemic due to their popularity as a main cuisine. The high number of feed mills and rising demand for fish and seafood with increasing aquaculture feed production are expected to drive the US feed additives market during the forecast period.

Market Definition
- FUNCTIONS - For the study, feed additives are considered to be commercially manufactured products that are used to enhance characteristics such as weight gain, feed conversion ratio, and feed intake when fed in appropriate proportions.
- RESELLERS - Companies engaged in reselling feed additives without value addition have been excluded from the market scope, to avoid double counting.
- END CONSUMERS - Compound feed manufacturers are considered to be end-consumers in the market studied. The scope excludes farmers buying feed additives to be used directly as supplements or premixes.
- INTERNAL COMPANY CONSUMPTION - Companies engaged in the production of compound feed as well as the manufacturing of feed additives are part of the study. However, while estimating the market sizes, the internal consumption of feed additives by such companies has been excluded.
| Keyword | Definition |
|---|---|
| Feed additives | Feed additives are products used in animal nutrition for purposes of improving the quality of feed and the quality of food from animal origin, or to improve the animals’ performance and health. |
| Probiotics | Probiotics are microorganisms introduced into the body for their beneficial qualities. (It maintains or restores beneficial bacteria to the gut). |
| Antibiotics | Antibiotic is a drug that is specifically used to inhibit the growth of bacteria. |
| Prebiotics | A non-digestible food ingredient that promotes the growth of beneficial microorganisms in the intestines. |
| Antioxidants | Antioxidants are compounds that inhibit oxidation, a chemical reaction that produces free radicals. |
| Phytogenics | Phytogenics are a group of natural and non-antibiotic growth promoters derived from herbs, spices, essential oils, and oleoresins. |
| Vitamins | Vitamins are organic compounds, which are required for normal growth and maintenance of the body. |
| Metabolism | A chemical process that occurs within a living organism in order to maintain life. |
| Amino acids | Amino acids are the building blocks of proteins and play an important role in metabolic pathways. |
| Enzymes | Enzyme is a substance that acts as a catalyst to bring about a specific biochemical reaction. |
| Anti-microbial resistance | The ability of a microorganism to resist the effects of an antimicrobial agent. |
| Anti-microbial | Destroying or inhibiting the growth of microorganisms. |
| Osmotic balance | It is a process of maintaining salt and water balance across membranes within the body's fluids. |
| Bacteriocin | Bacteriocins are the toxins produced by bacteria to inhibit the growth of similar or closely related bacterial strains. |
| Biohydrogenation | It is a process that occurs in the rumen of an animal in which bacteria convert unsaturated fatty acids (USFA) to saturated fatty acids (SFA). |
| Oxidative rancidity | It is a reaction of fatty acids with oxygen, which generally causes unpleasant odors in animals. To prevent these, antioxidants were added. |
| Mycotoxicosis | Any condition or disease caused by fungal toxins, mainly due to contamination of animal feed with mycotoxins. |
| Mycotoxins | Mycotoxins are toxin compounds that are naturally produced by certain types of molds (fungi). |
| Feed Probiotics | Microbial feed supplements positively affect gastrointestinal microbial balance. |
| Probiotic yeast | Feed yeast (single-cell fungi) and other fungi used as probiotics. |
| Feed enzymes | They are used to supplement digestive enzymes in an animal’s stomach to break down food. Enzymes also ensure that meat and egg production is improved. |
| Mycotoxin detoxifiers | They are used to prevent fungal growth and to stop any harmful mold from being absorbed in the gut and blood. |
| Feed antibiotics | They are used both for the prevention and treatment of diseases but also for rapid growth and development. |
| Feed antioxidants | They are used to protect the deterioration of other feed nutrients in the feed such as fats, vitamins, pigments, and flavoring agents, thus providing nutrient security to the animals. |
