Australia Poultry Feed Market Trends:

Surge in High-Performance Feed Additives and Functional Nutrition

Australians consume around 50kg of chicken per person annually, making it the country’s most popular meat. To meet growing demand, poultry producers are increasingly adopting advanced feed additives, including probiotics, enzymes, phytogenic, and synthetic binders, to enhance bird health, optimize nutrient absorption, and achieve strict performance goals. This shift is driven by the rising consumer demand for antibiotic-free and residue-safe poultry, leading to an expansion in Australia’s domestic animal feed additives sector. Formulators are investing in precision-nutrition solutions that combine multiple functional ingredients in a single pellet. Several factors support this trend: rising feed costs have heightened the focus on feed-conversion efficiency, while the consumer preference for antibiotic-free poultry has accelerated the adoption of natural alternatives. Additionally, the use of digital feed-management platforms enables real-time monitoring of additive performance. As a result, major companies like ADM, Alltech, and Cargill are collaborating with Australian R&D bodies to develop enzyme cocktails that reduce environmental waste and improve litter quality, while smaller firms are offering region-specific phytogenic profiles, such as Australian native botanicals, to meet clean label traceability demands.

Embracing Sustainable and Alternative Protein Sources

Australia’s poultry-feed industry is shifting towards alternative proteins, notably insect meals, and by-product streams within a circular-economy framework to reduce reliance on imported soy and fishmeal while meeting growing Environmental, Social, and Governance (ESG) mandates. Over 35% of Australians are open to trying insect-based foods, signaling strong market acceptance for feed ingredients derived from black soldier flies and mealworms. Concurrently, the industry is diversifying grain-based ingredients, with sorghum production forecast to have reached 1.8 million metric tons in the 2023/24 season. Sorghum’s favorable amino acid profile and lower input costs make it ideal for broiler and layer rations. Additionally, broader trend toward locally sourced by-products and microbial proteins supported by government and industry collaborations, such as AgriFutures Australia’s R&D efforts are strengthening the market growth. Startups like Goterra are piloting on-farm systems that convert organic waste into protein-rich larvae to promote circularity, which is aiding in market expansion.
