The main drivers of this growth are the rising demand for affordable animal-protein sources, increasing organised poultry farming and contract integration, and ongoing improvements in feed formulation and feed-conversion efficiency.
The trends and developments in the India Poultry Feed Market reflect the growing popularity of pelletised and formulated feeds that are aimed at broiler and layer production systems, and developing interest in alternative protein sources, including insect meal and distillers dried grains. Feed manufacturers are focusing on the production and marketing of clean-label and non-antibiotic feeds, and there are trials of digital/precision feeding technologies on larger commercial farms. The move towards integrated farm-to-feed-mill models continues to create efficiencies in the supply chain.
