Animal products
Keep pace when the demand rises
Rapid urbanization and rising incomes in middle-income countries are driving increased demand for secondary animal products like dairy and eggs. Our natural, functional feed additives can play a vital role in improving health, farm economics and leading the way towards a more profitable and sustainable future for the animal products industry.
Challenges and opportunities
Over the past decade, global milk production has increased by 34%, while egg production has risen by 40%. But the industry also faces challenges like livestock diseases that lower productivity, increase emissions intensity, and drive inefficient resource use. This leads to greater land pressure, increased antimicrobial use, and economic losses for farmers.
Our feed additives act as growth promoters and immune stimulators, reducing stress and mortality while improving nutrient absorption. They also provide antimicrobial and anti-stress benefits, thereby reducing diseases and the need for antibiotics to treat them. Improved nutrient absorption can also contribute to more efficient resource use in dairy and egg production.
Signals from the industry
The EU Deforestation Regulation (EUDR) aims to curb climate change and biodiversity loss by ensuring that commodities like leather and soy sold in or exported from the EU are deforestation free. This regulation impacts the dairy and egg industries by promoting more sustainable feed sourcing practices.
Global milk production is expected to grow by 20% by 2029, which is the fastest rate among all livestock commodities.
The livestock sector has the potential to achieve significant emission reductions while still meeting the anticipated increase in demand for animal products by 2050. According to a recent UN report (2023), increased productivity and improved animal health can reduce global livestock emissions by 30%.
Responsible solutions for the animal product industry
Our natural, multifunctional feed additives support healthy development, growth and immunity. They provide a cost-effective and sustainable alternative to current solutions. By keeping animals’ digestive systems stay balanced and protected they can help increase productivity, reduce costs, lower emissions and speed up the transition to more responsible farming.
