1. Market status
In recent years, the production of feed additives in China has maintained a growing trend. With the progress of science and technology, the types of feed additives are becoming richer and more obvious, which plays a great role in promoting the animal husbandry industry. In 2020, the national output of feed additives was 13.908 million tons, up 16% year on year. In 2021, the total output of feed additives in China was 14.775 million tons, an increase of 6.2% over the previous year. China's feed additive production in 2022 is expected to be 15.635 million tons, an estimated year-on-year growth of 5.8%.
At present, feed additives in China mainly include mono-type feed additives and mixed feed additives, among which mono-type feed additives are the main application varieties. In 2021, the total output of feed additives in China was 14.775 million tons, an increase of 6.2% over the previous year. Among them, the output of single feed additives was 13.679 million tons, an increase of 5.5%, accounting for 92.6% of the total additive output; The output of mixed feed additives was 1.096 million tons, up 16.2%, accounting for 7.4% of the total additive output.
2. Development trend
Large-scale breeding improves the demand for feed additives
Since August 2018, African swine fever outbreaks have occurred in various parts of China, and small and medium-sized farmers have been withdrawing from the market due to poor epidemic prevention ability and technical and financial strength. Domestic major listed companies in the live pig industry chain, such as Muyuan Stock, Zhengbang Technology, Wen's Stock, New Hope, etc., have expanded their production capacity during this period to seize market share and promote the process of pig scale breeding and the improvement of industry concentration.
Large-scale breeding enterprises pay more attention to the comprehensive benefits of animal production, and feed additives can effectively improve the feed utilization rate and reduce the disease rate, so the demand for feed additives in large-scale breeding enterprises is more obvious. In the future, with the continuous improvement of the scale of China's aquaculture industry, the demand for feed additives will also be further increased.
Feed additives to green and safe transformation
China's feed additive industry is now vigorously promote the "green, efficient, safe" product concept, the need for feed additives to improve feed utilization and breeding efficiency, but also to meet the health, safety, environmental protection requirements, which is conducive to ensuring feed safety from the source, to achieve green breeding, the production of green animal source Food.

As the first choice of antibiotic substitute products, acidity regulator has been widely recognized by feed enterprises, and its usage will increase rapidly.
At the same time, enzymatic hydrolysis of plant protein can provide more effectively absorbed and deposited protein for animals, and accelerate the growth of animals. Reduce the damage of anti-nutritional factors to the intestinal structure of animals, maintain the integrity of intestinal structure, and ensure the intestinal health of animals; Promote the growth and development of animal intestine, better play the function of intestinal digestion, absorption and immunity, accelerate the growth of animals, improve the efficiency of feed conversion.
Under the background of the development trend of "green, efficient and safe" in the feed industry and the comprehensive ban on the use of antibiotics, the market space of feed additives and feed raw materials has a great growth.
China's natural environment restrictions put forward higher requirements for feed utilization efficiency
In the early 21st century, with the rapid economic development in China, people's living standards have been greatly improved, and the proportion of meat, eggs and milk in the diet has gradually increased, which has driven the rapid development of aquaculture and feed industry.
At the same time, the development of the feed industry is also limited by the natural resources and environment of "more people and less land" in China. The per capita arable land in China is small, and the grain supply is tight. In order to meet the feed demand of livestock and poultry, China still needs to import soybean and other feed materials from abroad every year, and there is a contradiction of "people and livestock competing for food".
Therefore, it is increasingly urgent to improve feed utilization efficiency. Feed additives can improve the palatability of feed materials and ensure animal feed intake, and enzymatic hydrolysis of plant protein products can improve the efficiency of protein utilization. Both of them can effectively improve the utilization efficiency of feed raw materials and alleviate the contradiction between man and land.
