Fish Powder Market Report

Fish powder is made from cooked fishes and primarily used in animal feed. Also referred to as fish meal, it is generally prepared using fishes that are not normally meant for human consumption. Most of it is manufactured using small, wild-caught fishes, sustainable fish stocks, or unmanaged by-catches. On the other hand, a small percentage of fish powder is prepared using the offal and bones left over from processed fishes consumed by humans. Fish powder and fish oil are mainly prepared from pilchard, herring, anchovy, menhaden, and other species of oily fishes. Fish powder was previously considered as an important fertilizer.

According to a study recently published by the Institute of Aquaculture of the University of Stirling, substituting fish meal with crop-based ingredients may not be the best environment-friendly move. Commercial fish feed producers are observed to have increased the use of plant ingredients as a replacement for fish meal in aquaculture feeds, considering their desire to improve aquafeed sustainability and the benefit of economic incentives. However, the new research challenges this approach that many predict is more environment-friendly. As per the analysts, the global fish powder market is expected to come into the limelight because of such research studies.

The report on the global fish powder market is carefully assessed with strong focus on regional growth, segmentation, competition, and market dynamics. Each section of the report sheds light on critical factors and aspects of the global market and how they could impact growth during the course of the forecast period.

Global Fish Powder Market: Market Dynamics

Increasing awareness among consumers about the benefits of using fortified foods is anticipated to support the growth of the global fish powder market. The demand for fish powder products could see growth in the food industry with the increase in production of functional foods. Manufacturers are expected to improve their sales with growing investments in various types of fish species used to produce fish powder. Use of several types of fish species for the production of fish powder is foreseen to increase the interest in the global market.

Although fish powder is mostly used in animal feed, products with protein content and active concentration of mineral content could sometimes be used for human consumption. The use of fish powder in the formulation of ready-to-eat products is predicted to improve the demand in the coming years. However, the adoption of substitutes to fish powder is foretold to cut down the growth of the global market. Furthermore, price fluctuations and the gap between the demand and supply of raw materials are expected to upset the global market growth.
