ADVERTORIAL FEED & ADDITIVE MAGAZINE December 2025 27 The company's two products (an AI-powered live weight measurement system and an AI-powered device that recognises bird behaviour and repels them with a green laser) are rapidly gaining acceptance on modern farms. Exporting from Taiwan to Southeast Asia and 14 other countries, the company has come to the forefront at a time of increased biosecurity risks. ASIA: GREAT OPPORTUNITIES, BUT ALSO UNCERTAINTIES All companies agree that Asia is one of the world's fastest-growing feed markets in the medium to long term. However, short-term economic uncertainties and competition from China are challenging some producers. Huang from Yeong Ming cautiously describes the region's current situation: "Due to economic conditions, the market is currently declining. We do not expect this situation to improve in the short term." In contrast, the sector's innovation drive remains strong. According to Dr. Jadaun, biotechnology and antiviral solutions will be the two main areas of focus for producers. AgriAsia DC believes that the transformation in the market is shifting towards sustainability. Tommy Chou predicts that the Southeast Asian feed sector will continue to grow, driven by three main factors: 1. Rising livestock production to meet growing food demand, 2. Stricter food safety regulations, requiring higher feed quality and full traceability, 3. Sustainability pressures, with greater emphasis on energy-efficient and environmentally friendly feed production. CONCLUSION: ASIA IS SHAPING THE FUTURE OF FEED When the interviews are combined, it is clear that a major transformation is taking place in the animal nutrition and feed technology sector in Asia. The key dynamics of this transformation can be summarised as such: • The scaling up of the livestock industry is driving up feed demand, • Precision control in process technologies is becoming the new standard for efficiency, • Microbial additives, enzymes and immunity focused solutions are rapidly becoming widespread, • Digitalisation and automation are accelerating due to labour issues and biosecurity pressures, • Sustainability is becoming central to nutrition strategies. The region, stretching from Taiwan to India, Vietnam to Indonesia, is defining not only the volume of production but also the technological direction of the global feed industry. Asia is now not only the world's largest feed producer but also one of the most innovative markets. SPECIAL NEWS Image: Freepik
