In 2001, China continued to maintain its position as the second largest feed producer in the world

Introduction: it has been learned from relevant parties that in 2001, China's total feed output was 80.2 million tons, including 62 million tons of compound feed, 14.3 million tons of concentrated feed and 2.9 million tons of additive premix, respectively, an increase of 8%, 5%, 15% and 15% over the previous year, maintaining the position of the world's second largest feed producer It is understood that China's feed industry has entered a booming stage from the mid-1970s to the mid-1980s After more than 20 years of development, feed industry has become one of the important pillar industries in China's industrial system Compared with the growth rate of only 4.12% in 1999, the annual growth of feed production in 2000 and 2001 exceeded 8%, indicating that the feed industry in China shows signs of recovery After China's accession to WTO, China's feed industry is facing new development opportunities in the competition For example, the cost of livestock products in China is 50% - 80% lower than that in the world, and the cost advantage is obvious After entering WTO, the cost advantage of livestock products will gradually be transformed into export advantage In terms of feed materials, China is the world's largest market for fish meal, which accounts for more than 33% of global imports In addition, the consumption trend of food safety puts forward higher and higher requirements for feed safety There are 3.3 billion mu grassland in the north of China, 1 billion mu grass, mountains and slopes in the south, 600 million tons of straw in agricultural areas, and a large number of by-products for farmers The development and utilization of these resources will undoubtedly play a certain role in stimulating the demand for feed processing machinery It is worth noting that the development and application of Chinese herbal feed additives have made remarkable achievements in recent years It has a broad prospect to partially replace the chemical synthetic drug additives with Chinese herbal medicine, which is expected to become an advantage project of feed additive industry in China (author:) share to feed Weibo share to:
