Feed acidifiers was the largest segment with a revenue share of 11.21% in 2022. Horizon Databook has segmented the UK aquafeed additives market based on anti-parisitic, feed acidifiers, prebiotics, essential oil & natural extracts, palatants covering the revenue growth of each sub-segment from 2017 to 2030.
In the UK, Atlantic salmon is produced on a large scale especially in Scotland, which contributes highly to the aquaculture harvest value of the country. In addition, the country produces substantial amounts of farmed shellfish, mainly in Shetland. In some regions including Northern Ireland, England, and Wales, shellfish such as mussels and oysters as well as trout are being produced on a large scale.
The increasing production level of different types of aquafeed is expected to positively impact the market growth in the coming years. Feeds for various species such as salmon and trout majorly constitute both fishmeals, including fish byproducts and dried fish, as well as fish oil. Fish oil is essential to fulfill the nutritional requirements of the fish as well as the consumers.
Both fishmeal and fish oil are finite resources and with the growing aquaculture sector, their supply is becoming increasingly restricted as well as unsustainable. Alternative ingredients are now being used in the form of protein concentrates, vegetable oils, and soya beans across the country.
