Europe is another major market for feed flavors and sweeteners.But over the past few years, the feed flavors and sweeteners market in European countries is experiencing a stagnant growth owing to the cost and productivity of the animal feed. Other factors include outbreak of animal diseases, a major downfall in the animal feed production in France, and the non-significant growth in the animal feed industry. This has also led the European countries to increase its import demand for meat products, thereby benefiting countries such as Brazil, China, and so on.
