Raw Material – Segment Analysis
Animal based methionine held the largest share in the methionine market in 2019. Methionine is a typical swine diet plays important roles in promoting swine health and muscle growth. In contrast to plant foods, animal foods are perceived to have higher protein-to-energy ratios and better protein and amino acid digestibility. The usage of methionine in nutraceutical ensures healthy growth of animal. The market for nutraceutical in animal feed has become increasingly attractive in the last few years, majorly driven by the antimicrobial growth promoters in agriculture.
Product Type – Segment Analysis
DL Methionine held the largest share in the methionine market in 2019. Methionine is an essential and dietary limiting amino acid for aquatic species. DL-Methionine is the most effective source of methionine available for aquaculture feed. It is highly concentrated nutrient and delivers particle size designed specifically for aqua feeds. DL-Methionine for in aqua feed offers ideal protein feed approach. It translates into improved quality, less waste and smoother production of feed.
Form – Segment Analysis
Powdered ingredients have high stability and superior shelf life than liquid ingredients. Carotenoids, fibers and specialty carbohydrates, fish derived collagen and several plant extracts are available as powders that are used in the preparation of methionine products. The suitability of powdered ingredients for use in the production of various functional foods and dietary supplements is motivating the methionine formulators towards utilization of powdered ingredients. The rapid growth of dietary supplements for pets, companion and working animals is also driving the growth of powdered methionine market.
Application – Segment Analysis
Dietary supplements has been the primary market for methionine. Dietary supplements contain the essential nutrients which are lacking in the overall diet of human being. According to Nutrition Business Journal the supplement industry has reached $46 billion in annual sales in 2018. The supplement industry is poised to surpass $50 billion annually by 2020.
