Starter feed is a mixture of dairy and highly digestible protein products, acidifiers, enzymes, probiotics, and palatability agents like sweeteners and flavors with the raw materials that are generally available on the farm to obtain high-performing pre-starter and starter diets. With the usage of quality starter feeds in the first weeks of animal farms, it may obtain much higher results on the growth, nutritional, and sanitary performance of animals. It allows the animal to adapt to the solid feed and, consequently, improves the assimilation of the following feeds. In addition, we also obtain progressive growth and lower mortality.
Starter feeds are used in different types of livestock farming, such as poultry, swine, aquatic, and ruminants. In poultry, it is used in newly hatched chicks ages 0-10 weeks in order to increase protein levels up to 20%. It covers all the nutritional needs of the farm fish by improving the performance of the fish and contributes to increased production profitability. The starter feed for swine provides a balanced nutritional formulation and also helps in the increase of the swine population during the initial growth stage to get accustomed to a solid diet. In livestock feed, oats are easier to feed to animals than other grains because of their high fiber content and beta-glucans.
Major factors driving the global starter feed market are the increasing demand for livestock products, adoption of precision nutrition techniques, growing people's awareness about animal feed, rise in disposable income, favorable government policies in the animal industry, rise in livestock production, new products innovation and technological advancements in the farms. However, a lack of awareness and high-cost feed are restraining the growth of the global starter feed market.
