The feed industry is growing at a CAGR of 8 percent, with poultry, cattle and aqua feed sectors emerging as major growth drivers.
The demand of animal protein and dairy products in India expected to continue to increase and Nutriad aspires to play an important role in providing solutions for health and nutrition.
Driven by growth in demand for animal protein and dairy products, compound feed production is on the rise in India.
Broiler feed is still the largest segment, but aqua feed is growing rapidly.
Nutriad considers that there is strong potential for further growth of the compound feed segment if livestock challenges such as disease outbreaks, volatile livestock product prices and animal genetics are addressed.
