Animal Feed Production in the UK - Industry Market Research Report

Brexit woes: EU red tape and UK regulation may disrupt animal feed production

The Animal Feed Production industry is an essential producer of feed for farm animals, including concentrated animal feed, feed supplements and unmixed feeds. Animal feed comes in various forms, from raw grains to compound animal feed that offers particular nutritional benefits to maintain the animal's health and enhance the quality of the end product. Cereals account for approximately half of the production inputs, while oil cake accounts for nearly one-quarter. A combination of minerals, protein concentrates and other food production by-products accounts for the remaining share.

Producers in this industry prepare feeds for farm animals, including concentrated animal feed and feed supplements. They also make unmixed feeds and treat slaughter and industrial food manufacturing waste to produce animal feed. The industry excludes the production of pet food, any activities that produce usable animal feed as a by-product and the production of oilseed cake and fishmeal.
