Starter Feed Market, By Product Type (Medicated and Non-Medicated), By Form (Mash, Crumbles, Pellets, and Others), and By Livestock (Poultry, Aquaculture, Ruminants, Pigs, and Others) - Global Industry Insights, Trends, Outlook, and Opportunity Analysis, 2022-2028
The availability of alternatives such as conventional feed and high manufacturing costs are factors that restrain growth of the global starter feed market. Moreover, strict government regulations imposed on use of feed ingredients in the manufacturing of starter feed is a key challenge for manufacturers. For instance, regulation (EC) No 1829/2003 of the European Parliament on genetically modified feed provides an authorization procedure for placing genetically modified feed into market, which also includes feed additives produced from genetically modified organisms. Such regulations forces manufacturers to maintain their product quality.
