The global fish feed market is primarily driven by increasing seafood trade, growth in aquaculture production, and increasing consumer consumption of seafood due to the growing need for high protein diets. Aquafeed comprises one or more artificial and/or natural foods in the form of pellets or extruded pieces for commercial fish, crustaceans and molluscs. Growth in global aqua feed consumption continues to be significant due to the growth of the aquaculture industry. Global aquaculture production has grown rapidly over the past decades, contributing significantly to the global supply of fish and seaweed for human and animal consumption.
Rising per capita income, especially in developing countries, is expected to support the growth of aquaculture and the feed industry. Most of the seafood demand is supplied by the US market. The National Marine Fisheries Service has introduced strict regulatory frameworks for the production, use and marketing of the fishing industry, making the aquafeed market more organized and modern. Recently, the United States banned the use of antibiotics as growth promoters in feed additives for aquatic animals. As a result of this ban, other natural alternatives have increased the demand for essential oils as they serve the required production with cost advantages, increasing the demand for feed for water. This is expected to be an innovative growth opportunity for the market.
The market has major restraining factor like rise in raw material costs as majority of high-quality feed is prepared by fish meal and fish oil.
