Why Are Veterinarians Prescribing Organic Trace Mineral Products?

Trace minerals play a vital role in several metabolic functions in the animal body. These minerals can be derived from organic as well as inorganic sources. Inorganic trace minerals, such as sulphates, carbonates, chlorides, and oxides of elements, interact with tannin, fiber, silicates, oxalate, phytate, and other minerals in the gastrointestinal tract of animals, thereby affecting the feed absorption process. As organic trace minerals such as selenium, zinc, copper, and manganese improve gut absorption in animals, they are being increasingly used in animal feed. 

Organic Trace Minerals Market Outlook


As organic trace minerals also include iron, the surging iron deficiency among poultry and ruminants will help the organic trace minerals market register significant growth in the coming years. Additionally, the mounting focus of animal farm owners on strengthening animal immunity will create a huge requirement for minerals such as copper and manganese in the foreseeable future. Furthermore, the surge in the number of animal farms is propelling the demand for organic trace minerals, as veterinarians are increasingly recommending using these products in animal feed. 

According to P&S Intelligence, North America dominates the organic trace minerals market, due to the surging customer awareness about the advantages of organic products in the region. Additionally, the implementation of stringent environmental regulations is limiting the use of inorganic minerals, which is, in turn, fueling the adoption of organic trace minerals in the region. Furthermore, the Asia-Pacific (APAC) region is also adopting a considerable volume of organic trace minerals, due to the soaring consumption and export of milk products and meat in the region. 

Thus, the rising emphasis on animal health and enhanced productivity, escalating demand for milk products and milk, and growing prevalence of iron deficiency among animals will encourage the use of organic trace mineral products in the coming years.
