Vitamin & Mineral Premixes Market Dynamics
Drivers: Growth in compound feed consumption
According to the FAO Food Outlook, global meat production was estimated to be 311.8 million tonnes in 2014, with a year-on-year growth of 1.1%, due to increased meat consumption. To meet the increasing demand for meat products and as a control measure to reduce transportation and management costs, farmers opted to utilize complete feeds to prepare animal feeds. The rise in the prices of feed ingredients, such as wheat, corn, and soybean, has increased the operational costs of farm activities for livestock farmers. Also, the increased consumption of compound feeds for farm animals' growth and development has enabled feed premixes' growth. On-farm feeds using vitamin and mineral premixes are prepared by farmers to provide balanced feed to animals. The usage of feed premixes has also been prompted by the widening quality norms for exported livestock products and increasing awareness among consumers of healthy foods.
Restraints: Higher costs of fortified and enriched products
The price of fortified and enriched products with respect to non-fortified products is substantially higher. This aspect, coupled with the consumer’s unwillingness to pay a high amount for highly fortified and enriched products, is a restraining factor, especially for developing economies. The intensity of the factor has further increased in countries with a large population living below the poverty line. These people should be exposed to fortified products to deal with malnutrition issues.
Opportunities: Developing countries to emerge as strong consumers in feed application
Asia Pacific and South America account for a significant share of the vitamin & mineral premixes market. People in countries, such as India, China, Indonesia, Vietnam, and Thailand, are expected to consume meat at an annual rate of 2.4% till 2030, according to the FAO report on “World Agriculture: Towards 2015/2030”. This has increased the demand for high-quality feed concentrates and premixes. The key players in the premixes market have sensed this opportunity to start premix production plants in these regions, to meet the growing demand for feed premixes.
In the South American region, Brazil housed the largest cattle population in 2013, with a head count of 211 million. According to the FAO, it is expected to grow at a rate well above the regional average. The rising consumer awareness for nutritious products and the requirement for export quality meat products can establish a strong demand for feed premixes in this region.
Challenges: Inaccurate labeling of food products
Nutritional benefits associated with consuming food products are used as a marketing tool by most food manufacturers to drive their sales revenues. However, in some cases, manufacturers make nutritional claims regarding the content of micronutrients in the food product, which may not be true, giving rise to false claims and doubts about product authenticity. To deal with such malpractices, regional and country-level food authorities strictly emphasize adhering to food labeling laws by food manufacturers, wherein periodical quality testing of food products is conducted to cross-confirm the claims made by the food manufacturer by verifying the level of nutrients present in the product with that indicated on the product label. Penalties are imposed on those identified for non-adherence or false claims.
Thus, to deal with such instances, food manufacturers, especially those offering processed food products with a long shelf-life, are focusing on adding higher nutrient content than the amount mentioned on labels to maintain or match the content of micronutrients mentioned on the product label throughout the shelf-life of the product.
By type, vitamin & mineral combination segment expected to achieve fastest growth during forecast period
The popularity of vitamin & mineral premixes, compared to individually manufactured vitamin premixes and mineral premixes, can be attributed to the increased consumer preference for blends of different functional ingredients to attain optimum health. Also, one of the factors fueling the growth of this market is the occurrences/prevalence of vitamin & mineral deficiencies and anemia in developing countries. Leading manufacturers are tapping this opportunity and addressing malnutrition by introducing vitamin and mineral premixes blends for various applications.
By form, dry form expected to account for largest share during forecast period
Vitamin & mineral premixes are widely used in the powdered form, as they are more stable than the liquid form. The convenient packaging of powdered premixes reduces complexities in supply chain processes, resulting in the increased popularity of this form. Powdered premixes are used across an extensive range of feed and food applications, such as low-fat milk powders, bakery products, health drink powders, soup mixes, and dessert mixes. Vitamin & mineral premixes are used by pharmaceutical and personal care companies in their powder form to manufacture tablets, capsules, toothpaste, face powders, lipsticks, and creams.
By application, food & beverage segment expected to achieve fastest growth over forecast period
The scope of the food & beverages sector includes bakery products, beverages, dairy products, cereals, and others. In the present scenario, with busy lifestyles and high exposure to processed foods, it is difficult to maintain the ideal levels of vitamin & mineral intake daily. Lower intake of such essential nutrients has negatively impacted the population's health and well-being. In such cases, food & beverage products fortified with essential nutrient premixes, such as vitamins & minerals, play an important role in convenience and exposure to ideal levels of essential nutrients.
