Boston, MA -- (SBWire) -- 10/10/2012 --Feed additives are pharmaceutical or nutritional substances which are not of natural origin and are added to prepare and store feeds. Feed additives are gaining importance due to various functions such as growth promotion, controlling infectious diseases, and enhancement of feed digestibility. The global feed additives market is growing at a steady pace and the market is expected to grow in the future due to the increasing demand for meat and meat products around the globe. Epidemics like bird flu, other diseases like foot-and mouth-disease, and environmental concerns have led to an increase in concern over animal health round the globe, due to which meat producers have increased their focus on feed quality and certification.
