DUBLIN--(BUSINESS WIRE)--The "North American Feed Testing Market - Growth, Trends and Forecasts (2020 - 2025)" report has been added to ResearchAndMarkets.com's offering.
The North America Feed Testing Market is projected to register a CAGR of 7.4% during the forecast period 2020-2025
Owing to the rising awareness about meat safety across the world, the feed testing market is witnessing high demand. The regulatory bodies have been implementing several feed testing regulations to manufacture safe feed of high quality, using good manufacturing practices (GMP), good agriculture practices (GAP), and hazard analysis critical control point (HACCP) systems.
The majorly used feed substances, like cereals, are prone to fungal growth, owing to high moisture levels. Thus, the mycotoxin testing segment holds a major share in the feed testing market. Mold, yeast, vomitoxin counts, mold identification, and enterobacteria counts are gaining popularity in the feed testing market. Owing to the strict government regulations, North America has a major share in the feed testing market.
Key Market Trends
Increasing Government Regulations Driving Growth of Pet Food Testing Market
The presence of regulatory authorities such as the Food and Drug Administration (FDA), and the United States Department of Agriculture (USDA) is the major factor for big markets like North America for feed testing. The United States and Canada being developed countries, place emphasis on quality food for Humans consumption. The large agriculture and livestock market makes a case for the feed testing market in the region. According to the Food Safety Modernization Act (FSMA) set forth by the Food and Drug Administration (FDA), companies are asked to conduct pathogen detection and identification in pet food products, in order to ensure safety.
The pet food evaluation considers dry dog food, refrigerated dog food, frozen dog and cat foods, dry cat food, pet treats, such as jerky, and bird feeds. The evaluated pet food comprises ingredients, such as chicken, turkey, salmon, fats, and/or grains, coupled with vitamins, supplements, and preservatives.
The GeneDisc System method (developed by Pall Corporation) has been granted AOAC PTM certification for the detection of Salmonella spp. and pathogenic E. coli O157 in dry dog food and is also applicable to other pet food products. Manufacturers have been employing molecular diagnostics as part of pathogen control programs, in order to obtain quick and accurate results. However, the method is an expensive procedure for small processors.
United States is Dominating the Market
North America holds the largest share in the feed testing market. The key factor driving the growth of the feed testing market in the region is the stringent regulatory environment, coupled with large-scale feed production. The significant share possessed by the region can be attributed to the increase in outbreaks of feed-borne illnesses, the existence of a large number of feed safety testing players, and stringent regulations relating to food safety, in the region.
The United States is one of the largest producers of GM soy and corn, which supports the GMO testing market. The regulatory bodies in the region encourage testing practices during every stage of food production and processing. The food manufacturers are seeking holistic oversight over the entire value chain, imposing robust food safety policies. Canada follows the United States in the feed testing market share. It is the second-largest market for feed testing. In tandem with the United States market, the Canadian food market is also developed and aware of food safety. This agricultural scenario of the country provides a sizeable market for feed testing. Hence all these factors put together to contribute towards the increased demand for the feed testing market in the region.
Competitive Landscape
The North America feed testing market is consolidated with the top global players occupying a large market share. The companies active in the market are increasingly focusing on developing new services to keep pace with the changing government regulations.
The major players in the market are SGS SA, Intertek Group PLC, Eurofins Scientific, Genon Laboratories Ltd, and Bruker Biosciences Corporation, among others. Firms such as A&L Analytical Labs, Anresco, Eurofins, Genetic ID NA, Holmes Laboratory, Romer Labs are present in the United States for feed testing with specialties in nutritional analysis, pathogen analysis, pesticide testing, etc.
Acquisitions and expansions are the strategies used by firms to increase market reach. Firms are also promoting awareness about benefits and regulations involved in feed testing.
