Otsch's 10th Global Feed Survey this year is the 10th year that Otsch has released the report, and the Otsch Global Feed Survey has become an important barometer of animal feed production.
a decade of literature and research, it is a robust industry assessment of feed yields and prices, and a very complete report from similar data sources.
2021 Otsch Global Feed Survey estimates that global feed production has increased by 1%, reaching 1,187.7 million tons for the full year of 2020.
5 per cent growth in China, the world's largest feed producer, to 240m tonnes.
nine of the top 10 feed producers, including production and growth rates, are the United States (215.9 million tons, plus 1 percent), Brazil (77.6 million tons, plus 10 percent), India (39.3 million tons, -5 percent), Mexico (37.9 million tons, 4 per cent), Spain (34.8 million tons, 0 per cent), Russia (31.3 million tons, plus 3 per cent), Japan (25.2 million tons, 0 per cent), Germany (24.9 million tons, 0 per cent) and Argentina (22.5 million tons, 0 per cent).
countries account for a total of 63 per cent of global feed production and can be considered indicators of overall agricultural trends.

gender equality is not only a fundamental human right, but also essential for advancing society and the global ad-food industry.
