Global Demand for Feed-Grade Minerals Continues to Rise in 2025
1. Global Feed Industry Expands Rapidly in 2025
The global feed and animal nutrition industry continues to grow steadily in 2025, driven by rising consumption of livestock protein, rapid expansion of poultry production, and increased investment in dairy and beef systems. According to industry market data, demand forfeed-grade trace mineralsis expected to rise across Asia-Pacific, Europe, and Oceania, particularly for key ingredients such asCopper SulphateandSodium Bicarbonate.
As more countries focus on feed efficiency, animal health, and sustainable farming, feed mills and premix producers are seeking high-quality, consistent, and competitively priced raw materials from reliable suppliers.
2. China Strengthens Its Role as a Major Export Hub for Feed-Grade Minerals
China remains one of the world’s most important suppliers ofCopper Sulphate,Zinc Sulphate, andSodium Bicarbonate, providing stable sourcing solutions for feed manufacturers globally.
In 2024–2025, Chinese exporters have significantly improved:
Quality consistencythrough upgraded production lines
Cost competitivenessdriven by optimized supply chains
Global logistics efficiency, especially for bulk and container shipments
Customized packaging optionsfor feed mills and distributors
These strengths allow feed producers in Europe, Australia, Southeast Asia, and the Americas to maintain predictable raw material pipelines.
3. Strong Market Demand for Copper Sulphate and Sodium Bicarbonate
Copper Sulphate – Essential for Growth & Immunity
Copper Sulphate remains one of the most widely used trace minerals in premix and compound feed. It plays an essential role in:
Energy metabolism
Enzyme activation
Animal growth and immunity
Pig and poultry performance
High-purity feed-grade Copper Sulphate (CuSO₄·5H₂O) with low heavy metals is increasingly preferred by premix factories and integrators.
Sodium Bicarbonate – Buffering for Dairy, Poultry, and Feed Mills
Global demand forSodium Bicarbonatecontinues to grow due to:
Dairy buffering functions (rumen pH stabilization)
Inclusion in poultry feed formulas
Use in aquaculture diets
Broad application in food and industrial sectors
In early 2025, several Chinese suppliers successfully shipped large volumes of high-purity Sodium Bicarbonate to Europe, Southeast Asia, and the Middle East, reinforcing China’s capability as a stable global source.
4. Case Study: 1,200 Tons of Sodium Bicarbonate Shipped to Europe
Recently, a major Chinese exporter completed a shipment of1,200 tons of Sodium Bicarbonateto long-term partners in Europe.
This delivery highlights:
Fast loading efficiency
On-time vessel schedule
Consistent quality that meets EU feed-grade standards
Strong supply capacity for large-volume orders
Such large-scale shipments strengthen customer confidence and demonstrate China’s growing capability to support international feed supply chains.
5. Why Global Feed Mills Prefer Chinese Suppliers in 2025
More international feed mills, premix companies, and distributors choose Chinese mineral suppliers for several reasons:
✔ Strong production capacity
Ensures long-term, uninterrupted supply.
✔ Competitive pricing
Especially important for price-sensitive feed formulations.
✔ Stable quality & strict QC systems
Including COA, MSDS, TDS, and third-party testing.
✔ Flexible logistics options
FOB, CFR, CIF with major ports across China.
✔ Weekly loading schedules
Beneficial for customers who require continuous delivery.
6. Outlook for 2025: Rising Demand in Australia, Southeast Asia & Europe
The feed-grade mineral market is expected to stay strong throughout 2025.
Key regions showing higher demand include:
Australia(beef, dairy, poultry, premix factories)
Europe(feed integrators and distributors)
Southeast Asia(poultry, aqua feed growth)
Australian feed mills, in particular, show increasing interest inCopper SulphateandSodium Bicarbonateas they prepare for supply planning for 2025–2026.
