Covered in this report:

The global medicinal feed additive market can be segmented into the following based on type: antibiotics, vitamins, antioxidants, amino acids, feed enzymes, and others. Antioxidants, commonly known as shelf-life extenders, are used to prolong the shelf-life of nutrients such as vitamins, fats, pigments, and flavoring present in animal feed.

Growth in medicated feeds is one of the trend. These additives, when added to animal feeds, help prevent diseases among livestock, maintain animal health, promote growth, and add to feed efficiency. Another trend witnessed in the market is the demand for veterinary specialists.
