Pellet is a more common form of feed available in the market. Feed processing also depends on the type of feed, based on the feed processing start the grinding process. The safety of the animal feed is one of the major concerns during the feed processing to improve to quality of the feed.

Feed processing has various methods such as Grinding/crushing, chaffing, soaking, heat treatment/steaming, pelleting, alkali treatment, and other methods that used to increase the nutritive value of feed and fodder.

Higher the consumption of the feed in livestock industry has increased the demand for feed processing in the global market.

Growth in the animal husbandry industry and higher the consumption of feed additive has increase the demand for feed processing in the global market. Higher consumption of meat, advancement in technology and increase the demand for feed in worldwide are the factors that drive the growth of feed processing in the global market.

Higher the consumption of livestock product as people has more concern of nutritional wellbeing of animals are also the one of the factor that drive the growth of feed processing market. However, the higher the maintenance cost of equipment is one of the major restrain of the market.

Pellet feed is more consume in comparison to any other feed due to its high protein content, easy to digest, and degraded the higher protein in smaller amounts. Pellet is sub segmented in crumbles, flour, mills, and others.

The key producers invest in their technology to develop the new device which increases the production and develop the new various type feed in the global market. In the livestock industry, aquaculture has a higher demand for feed in the global market.
