Regulatory issues are the biggest constraints in the global ruminant feed market. Animal feed production comes under feedstuff regulations, in most countries. The regulatory framework is increasingly getting stringent, such as in 2006 in the EU and in 2009 in the United States, which banned the use of certain antibiotics as growth promoters in animals.

Producers of feed and feed additives are required to follow strict regulations implemented by regional and national health and safety organizations for their products approval in the developed countries. This ultimately affects the cost of the final products. Such regulatory initiatives are posing challenges for existing feed products and increasing the cost of new feeds development.

The major concern for feed additives is to enhance animal performance and health. The rise in the usage of these ingredients in different sectors is leading to a competition between the industries for raw materials, which adversely affects the growth of market.
