Animal Growth Promoters (AGPs) are additives used in animal feedstuffs to improve the growth rate, feed efficiency, and health of livestock. AGPs are typically composed of antibiotics, hormones, and other compounds that can be administered orally or through injection. AGPs are used to reduce the amount of feed needed to produce a given amount of meat, milk, or eggs, and to reduce the risk of disease in animals. AGPs are also used to improve the quality of animal products, such as meat, milk, and eggs. AGPs are regulated by the Food and Drug Administration (FDA) in the United States, and by other regulatory bodies in other countries. The use of AGPs is controversial, as some believe that their use can lead to the development of antibiotic-resistant bacteria. Some of the companies in the Animal Growth Promoter market include Elanco, Zoetis, Merck, Bayer, and Novartis. Show Less Read more
