- The African feed enzymes market showed slow growth in recent years, accounting for only 3.8% of the total feed additives market in 2022. However, South Africa emerged as a dominant player in the region, accounting for 47.4% of the market share due to its significant feed production of 11 million metric tons in 2022.
- Although the market witnessed a decline of 28% in 2019 due to reduced feed production as a result of Avian flu and ASF outbreaks, carbohydrases emerged as a significant feed enzyme in the market due to their ability to increase the intake of protein, minerals, and lipids from animal feed. The carbohydrases segment accounted for 50% of the feed enzymes market in 2022.
- Among animal types, poultry birds are the largest segment of the feed carbohydrases segment, accounting for 57.9% of the market share in 2022, as carbohydrases aid in the digestion of non-soluble polysaccharides.
- South Africa is the fastest-growing country in Africa, and it is expected to register a CAGR of 4.7% during the forecast period (2023-2029). However, both carbohydrases and phytases are growing at an equal rate in the region and are expected to record a CAGR of 4.1% each during the forecast period.
- Factors such as the increasing awareness of the usage of feed additives and the demand for meat and livestock are expected to drive the African feed enzymes market's growth. It is expected to record a CAGR of 4.1% during the forecast period as enzymatic action increases the amount of cereal absorbed in an animal body, particularly when cereal prices are high.
- The African feed enzymes market experienced moderate growth of 6.0% during 2017-2022, with a share by value of approximately 3.7% in the global feed additives market. However, the region faced a sudden dip in 2019 due to the collapsed GDP growth of major countries, such as South Africa, leading to reduced consumer spending power and decreased feed production.
- Despite the setback, South Africa remained the largest country-wise segment in the African feed enzymes market, accounting for around USD 29.5 million in 2022, followed by Egypt with USD 11.1 million. Poultry birds were the largest consumers of feed enzymes, accounting for a 55.7% share by value in 2022, while ruminants, swine, and aquaculture accounted for shares of 32.2%, 7.5%, and 3.5%, respectively. Due to the growing demand for pork, the swine feed enzymes market is expected to grow at the fastest rate, with a CAGR of 4.9% during the forecast period (2023-2029).
- In 2022, the African region produced approximately 131 million metric ton of compound feed for all animal types, with South Africa accounting for more than 29% of the share. In 2021, South Africa held more than an 8% share of the poultry bird segment in the African region.
- The rising demand for meat and increasing awareness of healthy animal diets are driving the growth of feed enzyme consumption in the region. As a result, the African region of the global feed enzyme market is projected to record a CAGR of 4.1% between 2023 and 2029, providing ample opportunities for key players to expand their business in the African feed enzymes market.
