Feed Grade Valine Industry Had a Negative Effect Due to Supply Chain Disruptions during COVID-19 Pandemic

The global COVID-19 pandemic has been unprecedented and staggering, with the market experiencing lower-than-anticipated demand across all regions compared to pre-pandemic levels. The sudden market growth reflected by the rise in CAGR is attributable to the market’s growth and demand returning to pre-pandemic levels.

Global Lockdowns and Restrictions of Movement Threatened the movement of Supplies both the Input and output of goods affecting the supply chains. Most manufacturing facilities experienced downtimes with prompt supplies of feed grade valine being affected. Since valine is produced through the synthesis of specific intermediate materials, their accessibility was hampered due to the constraints in chemical industries, manufacturing factories, and others. This led to an upsurge of its prices, and restricted circulation of this product in some parts of the world.

FEED GRADE VALINE MARKET SEGMENTATION

BY TYPE

Based on Type, the global market can be categorized into L Type, D Type and DL Type.

• L Type- L-Valine is the L enantiomer and is active in biological processes, known as the naturally occurring valine. It is a conditionally essential amino acid that animals are unable to produce and need to consume in their foods.
• D Type- D-Valine is the synthetic form of valine and does not exist in the biological world as such. Further, animals are comparatively poor in terms of metabolizing D-Valine lesser than L-Valine.
• DL Type- DL-Valine is an equimolar mixture of D-Valine and L-Valine molecules under the same environment. The active and the beneficial form in the context of the current study is L-isomer in the case of CE and the animals, while the D-isomer is not metabolized so efficiently.

BY APPLICATION

Based on application, the global market can be categorized into Pig, Poultry and Others.

• Pig- It further points that valine is essential in the growth of piglets especially when young. Valine is often considered an essential amino acid as far as its consumption by people is concerned, which indicates that if this amino acid’s levels are low, an individual’s development may regress.
• Poultry- In poultry, particularly in broilers; amino acids such as valine play a role in muscle development mostly for lean body mass. Valine helps the broilers gain the required weight and muscle tissue accretion in the shortest time possible.

MARKET DYNAMICS

Market dynamics include driving and restraining factors, opportunities and challenges stating the market conditions.                 

DRIVING FACTORS

"Increasing Demand for Animal Protein to Boost the Market"

A factor in the Feed Grade Valine market growth is the Increasing Demand for Animal Protein. Global population is still on the rise and with it comes the need for increased animal protein consumption in the form of meat, eggs and dairy. This has created the need for better animal production and therefore val assumption beverages to upgrade growth /feed efficiency in monogastric animals such as pigs and poultry. The increasing demand for meats globally and especially in the developing nations has significantly spurred the feed grade valine market. Valine is vital for enhancing muscle deposition and for better feed-to-gain ratio in the poultry, pigs, and other species of meat producing animals.

"Technological Advancements in Feed Formulation to Expand the Market"

Increasingly, precision nutrients are applied that address nutrient-specific formulation of diets for animals. These hi tech feeds containing Valine are being incorporated into the advanced feed formulations to offer exact nutrient profiles for growing, growing finishing and even mature animals. New advancements in the feed additive industry have enabled higher bioavailability and digestibility of amino acids such as valine making its addition to animal feeds easier and cheaper.

RESTRAINING FACTOR

"High Production Costs to Potentially Impede Market Growth"

Since feed grade valine involves certain raw materials, their prices may vary from time to time. The costs of basic inputs such as carbohydrates, or any other chemicals that are used in the fermentation or synthesis of valine can push up the general costs of producing it. This increases the costs of the product to the feed manufacturers and thus its use in low-cost markets is restrained. Biochemical synthesis of Valine, especially by bio-fermentation, is a complex operation, which needs advanced technology and equipment. Some smaller manufacturers or those in the developing world might not afford to invest in the needed technology, this acts as a constraint to market growth.

OPPORTUNITY

"Focus on Sustainable and Eco-Friendly Livestock Farming To Create Opportunity for the Product in the Market"

Feed grade valine can therefore be relied on to assist in formulation of low protein diets for animals while maintaining the growth rates. These diets decrease nitrogen excretion and thus lessen the effects of livestock farming, global warming and water pollution. This focus on sustainability results in new possibilities for the higher usage of valine in feeds. With more regulatory bodies in governments and industry establishing tighter measures to control emissions from livestock, and farm waste disposal, feed makers, and farmers are actively seeking feed supplements that address sustainability objectives. They include it to help feed doors meet these regulations since valine has a way of increasing the nutrient uptake of animals and decreasing the wastage rate.

CHALLENGE

"Volatility in Raw Material Supply and Costs Could Be a Potential Challenge for Consumers"

The feed grade valine mainly depends on various products from carbohydrates such as corn or sugar or chemical reagents used in the fermentation process. Any erratic or poor production of these materials occasioned by poor yields, weather changes, political upheavals among others results in an erratic supply and expensive output. Grain used as feed and raw material for many amino acids like corn and soya may be affected by drought, climate change or demand spike in other industries like biofuels. This can result in an increased cost of producing feed grade valine, fluctuations in the market and other challenges.
