The concept of direct-fed microbial products involves the feeding healthy microbes to animals. These are usually direct-fed microbial products when under stress such as disease, environmental changes, ration changes, production challenges and others.
The direct-fed microbial products are useful for improving feed digestibility, better performances and nutrient absorption in the animals. The major consequence of direct-fed microbial products supplementation is to improve nutrient utilization for livestock which is projected to boost the demand for direct-fed microbial products over the forecast period.
The demand for lactic acid bacteria in animal feed have been contributing the growth of direct-fed microbial products market. As the lactic acid bacteria are easy and convenient to use with wide applications in animal feed.
This includes altering the metabolism, maintaining microbial flora in intestine, ammonia production, neutralize enterotoxin and support immune system. Owing to these factors the direct-fed microbial products is anticipated to have significant growth in near future.
The recent outbreaks of disease such as avian flu, the meat market especially in countries like U.S. has become cautious about the quality and safety of food. The government of U.S. has put a complete ban on using antibiotics in the animal feed. With the ban of feed antibiotics the demand for direct-fed microbial products has been increasingly in demand in North America.
The animal feed industry is increasingly showing interest in the direct-fed microbial products to keep the food supply chain safe at the consumer level. After the ban of use of antibiotics the demand for direct-fed microbial products has immensely increased.
The direct-fed microbial products may also contain a blend of microbes which contain good microbes and influence the internal gut microbial flora of the animals are being considered as good feed additives for increasing their appetite and food intake boosting their immunity.
The direct-fed microbial products have also been known to provide a natural defense system to the animals and protecting them against harmful virus. Direct-fed microbial products have also reduced the mortality rates of the animals and reported protected them from many infections.
Clostridial diseases have been avoided in the avian animals due to the use of direct-fed microbial products. Other major diseases include diarrhea and gastrointestinal diseases.
The innovative progression in the field of molecular biology and genetics is permitting the scientist and researchers to grow new probiotic equations that are more versatile for the animals. The direct-fed microbial products are without a doubt useful for the animal gut wellbeing and the overall development. The advancement of the new age innovation is improving the animal feeds market giving better opportunities over the forecast period.
With the rapid growth in technology and advancement in science the direct-fed microbial products market has been gaining significant traction over the past several decades. These days animal specific feeds have been introduced in the market that vary in doses and microbial content depending upon the type of the animal (canine, poultry, etc.).
The scenario for the cattle feed transformed when the Food and Drug Administration (FDA) released its Guidance for Industry 213 and Veterinary Feed Directive. Although FDA’s initiative restored limited impact on cattle production, it has transformed the entire feeding environment. Cattle producers can no longer use several antibiotics that are labeled as growth promoters which create ample opportunities for the direct-fed microbial products market in cattle feed in the upcoming years.
