  • Enzymes are an important type of feed additive used in animal nutrition. In South America, enzymes held a market share of 3.8% in the total feed additives market in 2022. Enzymes are crucial in many metabolic reactions, including the breakdown of starch, protein, and fat in the animal body.
  • Among enzymes, carbohydrases are the most commonly consumed in South America, with a market value of USD 70.7 million. Carbohydrases are important in reducing animal feed costs by increasing energy and degrading starch, which releases molecules that form a usable source of energy for the animal. They also enhance the intake of protein, minerals, and lipids from animal feed.
  • Poultry birds were the largest animal type segment for feed carbohydrases, accounting for 52.1% of the market share value in 2022. This is associated with the higher consumption of cereal with high non-starch polysaccharide content in poultry feed.
  • Phytases, on the other hand, accounted for 33.6% of the South American feed enzymes market in terms of value in 2022, making it the second-largest segment in the feed enzymes market. The rising demand for animal protein, the increasing animal population, and the benefits of enzymes are the driving factors in the positive trend of the feed enzymes market.
  • Brazil is the largest market for feed enzymes in South America, accounting for 57.2% of the market share in 2022. The higher share is due to the increased headcount of poultry by 9.1% in the country between 2017 and 2022. Thus, the market for feed enzymes is expected to grow during the forecast period with a CAGR of 4.8%, owing to the importance of feed enzymes in animal nutrition.

South America Feed Enzymes Industry Segmentation

Carbohydrases, Phytases are covered as segments by Sub Additive. Aquaculture, Poultry, Ruminants, Swine are covered as segments by Animal. Argentina, Brazil, Chile are covered as segments by Country.

  • Enzymes are an important type of feed additive used in animal nutrition. In South America, enzymes held a market share of 3.8% in the total feed additives market in 2022. Enzymes are crucial in many metabolic reactions, including the breakdown of starch, protein, and fat in the animal body.
  • Among enzymes, carbohydrases are the most commonly consumed in South America, with a market value of USD 70.7 million. Carbohydrases are important in reducing animal feed costs by increasing energy and degrading starch, which releases molecules that form a usable source of energy for the animal. They also enhance the intake of protein, minerals, and lipids from animal feed.
  • Poultry birds were the largest animal type segment for feed carbohydrases, accounting for 52.1% of the market share value in 2022. This is associated with the higher consumption of cereal with high non-starch polysaccharide content in poultry feed.
  • Phytases, on the other hand, accounted for 33.6% of the South American feed enzymes market in terms of value in 2022, making it the second-largest segment in the feed enzymes market. The rising demand for animal protein, the increasing animal population, and the benefits of enzymes are the driving factors in the positive trend of the feed enzymes market.
  • Brazil is the largest market for feed enzymes in South America, accounting for 57.2% of the market share in 2022. The higher share is due to the increased headcount of poultry by 9.1% in the country between 2017 and 2022. Thus, the market for feed enzymes is expected to grow during the forecast period with a CAGR of 4.8%, owing to the importance of feed enzymes in animal nutrition.
