The growing awareness regarding the quality of livestock products is a crucial factor expected to enable growth of the global compound feed market, says Fortune Business Insights™ in a report, titled “Compound Feed Market Size, Share And Global Trend By Ingredient Type(Feed grains, Cakes & Meals, By-Products, Supplements), By Source(Plant-sourced, Animal-sourced), By Livestock (Ruminants(Calves, Dairy, & Beef Cattle), Swine(Starter, Grower, and Sow), Poultry(Chicks, Broilers, and Layers), Aquatic animals(Molluscs and Fish)), And Geography Forecast Till 2028” the growing storage issue with traditional feedstuffs is likely to fuel demand for compound feed during the forecast period.

Compound feed, also known as manufactured or complete feed, refers to a mixture of various ingredients that are formulated to provide balanced nutrition for livestock animals. This type of feed is commonly used in commercial animal production to ensure that animals receive all the necessary nutrients they require for growth, production, and overall health. Compound feed is particularly important in intensive livestock farming systems where animals may not have access to a natural and diverse diet.

The Swiss product offering includes specialty feed for pets, horses, zoo animals and medicated feed. Cargill employs about 250 people who will be transitioned under existing contracts, and operates three well-equipped, state-of-the-art animal feed production sites across Switzerland, among them a new facility constructed in 2016 at its location in Lucens. The new project is expected to aid Cargill in the management of employees and entirely focus on its customers. The acquisition of Cargill by AURELIUS is predicted to stimulate the healthy growth of the market during the forecast period.

Furthermore, the acquisition of Philippines-based Aboitiz Equity Ventures is predicted to boost the compound feed market share during the forecast period. For instance, Philippines-based Aboitiz Equity Ventures acquired a 75% stake in Asia's largest animal feed company Gold Coin Management Holdings in 2018. Moreover, the increasing demand for feed materials due to declining grazing land is expected to foster the growth of the market. The collection and storage issues with traditional feedstuffs is also predicted to bode well for the market.

However, availability & use of cheaply priced substitute products grown at the farms (ease of access) is predicted to hamper the growth of the market. The low purchasing power, inadequate extension, along with poor infrastructure are factors predicted to inhibit the growth of the market in the forthcoming years.
