Market Overview
The European poultry feed market is projected to register a CAGR of 4.2% during the forecast period (2021-2026). According to the USDA, the COVID-19 pandemic and the lockdown in most EU-27 countries led to a collapse of HRI demand. The global poultry sector, including Europe, faced the impact of COVID-19 in terms of supply chain disruption, particularly to the foodservice sector and volatile feed prices. Thus, the poultry feed market in Europe is impacted negatively by the global pandemic. Relatively low and competitive pricing of poultry meat compared to other meat, the absence of cultural or religious obstacles, and dietary and nutritional (protein) qualities are the main factors of attraction driving the market growth. With the rising health crisis, consumer's attention has been mainly focused on production methods and the reliability of the information. The growing poultry production led to increased feed production in the region. According to the European Feed Manufacturers Federation (FEFAC), in 2018, the poultry feed production was 55.8 million metric ton, which increased compared to the 54.9 million metric ton in the previous year. Terrena, Royal Agrifirm Group, Cargill, Incorporated, De Hues, and Danish Agro are among the leading players in the market.

Key Market Trends
Growing Meat Production Drives the Market
Due to the rising meat consumption, producers are also shifting the production trends to meet consumer demand. For instance, according to the Organisation for Economic Co-operation and Development (OECD), in 2019, the per capita poultry meat consumption in Russia reached 31.7 compared to 29.5 in 2016. To meet this rising meat consumption, the need for meat production increased. According to Eurostat, from 2018 to 2020, there was a slight increase in production by 6.0% in Poland. There was an increase of 4% and 6% in Spain and Italy from 2018-2019. In 2019, the European Union (EU) produced 13.4 million metric ton of poultry meat. In the total meat produced, about 70.0% of the production of poultry meat came from just six Member States: Poland (16.8%), the United Kingdom (12.9%), France (11.4%), Spain (10.7%), Germany (10.4%), and Italy (8.5%). The meat production in the region is projected to grow further during the forecast period, which will drive the poultry feed production.

The Cereals Segment Dominates the Market
Despite the huge variations in feed material prices over the last years, the proportion of feed materials per category remained relatively stable (50% for cereals, 11.5% for co-products of the food, and bioethanol industry). The proportion of oilseed meals decreased due to a trend to further reduce the levels of proteins in feed for farmed animals. Cakes and meals account for 26.0%. According to the FEFAC, in 2016, the cereals consumption in industrial feed production amounted to 78.6 million metric ton, which increased to 81.6 million metric ton in 2018, which is approximately 50.0% of the total ingredients used. Europe also imported cereals amounting to 21.3 million metric tons in 2019 compared to 12.8 million metric tons in 2016. Hence, the growing poultry population coupled with intensive production trends will further drive the growth of the segment during the forecast period.
