Market Dynamics of the Brazil Animal Feed Market

The Brazil animal feed market is driven due to the growing population and demand for animal protein, as a result, the livestock and poultry industries have continued to expand from year to date, and continues to develop in terms of development. The introduction of the need for keeping animals healthy and productive through balanced feeds, as well as the shift from traditional feedstuffs to compound feeds, support continued growth for Brazil feed manufacturing. Furthermore, the growing agricultural production base for Brazil, combined with the growing integration between feed manufacturing and livestock production, and the ongoing improvements in feed manufacturing facilities, will ultimately lead to an increase in the number of feed manufacturers, thus creating increased support for Brazil animal feed production.

 

The Brazil animal feed market is restrained by the pricing volatility of raw material prices, the heavy reliance upon agricultural commodity supplies, and the increased cost of production. Additionally, many environmental regulations and logistical issues from one region to another, and the price sensitivity of smallholder farmers has limited their ability to adopt premium and specialty feed products.

 

The Brazil Feed Market will experience growth due to developing specialty functional feeds and expanding aquaculture aquafeed. Increased demand for Antibiotic-Free animals and organic animal products will drive this development, through innovations around alternative protein sources and precision feeding.
