Feed protease is a type of functional enzyme preparation specially added to animal feed. Its main function is to decompose natural protein molecules in feed into small peptides and amino acids that are easily absorbed, thereby improving protein digestibility and utilization efficiency. It can make up for the problem of insufficient digestive enzyme activity of animals themselves, especially in young animals or high-protein diets. It is often used in combination with phytase, carbohydrase, etc., which can reduce nitrogen emissions, improve intestinal health, and significantly increase feed conversion rate. It is an important additive for achieving efficient and environmentally friendly breeding.
The global feed protease market is in a stage of continuous expansion, and market demand is mainly driven by three factors: First, the global "antibiotic ban" and "antibiotic reduction" policies have been fully implemented. Protease, as a functional additive to improve animal intestinal health and improve nutrient absorption efficiency, has become a core alternative to antibiotics; second, the price of feed raw materials continues to fluctuate, especially high-quality protein raw materials such as soybean meal and fish meal, which has prompted breeding companies to improve the utilization rate of low-quality plant protein (such as rapeseed meal and cottonseed meal) through protease; third, the pressure on environmental protection and sustainable breeding has increased. Protease can reduce nitrogen emissions in feces by more than 20%, which is in line with the policy orientation of green breeding. Protease can significantly improve the amino acid release efficiency of protein in feed (increase by 10%-15%), reduce the overall protein addition demand, and has obvious economic and environmental benefits. The main applications are concentrated in poultry (broilers and laying hens, accounting for about 45%) and pigs (40%), and aquaculture is growing rapidly due to the demand for high-protein feed. In terms of regional distribution, Asia-Pacific (China, Vietnam, India) has the highest market share, accounting for about 50%.
The global market competition is highly concentrated, with the three leading companies, Novozymes of Denmark, DSM-Firmenich of the Netherlands and DuPont of the United States, accounting for the main market share in the international market. Novozymes has a technical monopoly advantage in the field of pH-resistant proteases; DSM-Firmenich focuses on the research and development and promotion of proteases for aquaculture; DuPont is known for its high-temperature resistant complex enzymes. Chinese manufacturers such as VTR and Blue Bio have risen rapidly in recent years, and have achieved rapid growth in the local market and along the “Belt and Road” with their price advantages and regional customization capabilities (such as enzymes for palm meal in Southeast Asia). The industry also faces multiple challenges: for example, high temperatures (80–90°C) in feed pelleting lead to the inactivation of proteases, requiring additional coating to ensure activity and increase production costs; delayed approval of transgenic proteases in the Middle East, Argentina and other places affects market access; in addition, fermentation treatment, synthetic amino acids and other technologies have formed a certain substitution effect on the enzyme preparation market. There are obvious regional differences: the European and American markets are dominated by high-value-added compound enzymes, with a premium rate of up to 30%; the Asia-Pacific market prefers single enzyme products and is highly price sensitive; and due to the low level of intensive farming in Africa, the market penetration rate is still less than 8%, and future potential needs to be further released.
