Global Aquafeed Market Propelled by Increasing
Demand for Seafood The global aquafeed market
has witnessed a positive growth over the past few
years. The growing aquaculture industry and the
introduction of new technologies aimed to improve
feed quality have provided an impetus to the
market growth. IMARC Groups recent study,
titled Aquafeed Market Global Industry Trends,
Share, Size, Growth, Opportunity and Forecast
2018-2023, finds that the global aquafeed
market reached a volume of more than 44 Million
Tons in 2017. Aquafeed has become a vital part of
the aquaculture industry owing to its growth
promoting and nutritional properties. A wide
range of ingredients are used in the preparation
of aquafeed, such as marine animals, plants,
terrestrial-based live feeds, plant or grain
products and by-products. The high-quality
commercial aquafeed is more advantageous to
crustaceans, mollusks, fishes, etc. than
farm-made feeds due to their need-specific and
balanced composition. Nowadays, various finished
products and ingredients are also being tested to
ensure that the essential nutrients are present
in aquafeed and are suitable for the aquatic
species.

Global Aquafeed Market Trends There has been a
rise in the overall consumption of seafood due to
increasing awareness among consumers about their
high-protein content. This has encouraged the
farmers to utilize improved aquafeed for the
production of aquatic animals. Apart from this,
with rising importance of aquaculture, the
requirement of natural resources for producing
aquafeed ingredients has intensified. The
manufacturers are also producing safe and
sustainable feed products that secure human,
animal and environmental health. Additionally,
new technologies are being introduced so as to
improve the feed quality in order to attain
higher productivity. Moreover, research and
development activities, especially in Europe,
have resulted in the introduction of alternative
raw materials and low-cost production techniques
which are anticipated to augment the growth of
the aquafeed market. However, the fluctuating
prices of raw materials used in the production of
aquafeed can hinder the market growth. Looking
forward, the market is projected to exceed a
volume of 82 Million Tons by 2023, expanding at a
CAGR of 11 during 2018-2023. Read more here
