Based on the source, the porcine segment is projected to be the larger contributor to the plasma feed market during the forecast period

The plasma feed market has been segmented, based on source, into porcine, bovine, and others, which includes sheep, goat, and poultry. The market for porcine plasma feed is projected to record a higher market share between 2019 and 2025. Porcine blood meal offers various health benefits to animals and is used significantly in poultry and porcine feed. For instance, as per the National Center for Biotechnology Information (NCBI), “pigs fed diets containing porcine plasma had greater average daily feed intake (ADFI) and average daily growth (ADG).”

Plasma feed is projected to be used majorly in pet food during the forecast period

The major factor for the higher adoption of plasma feed in pet food is anticipated because the tendency of people to humanize pets and treat them like their family members has resulted in the high demand for better quality pet food. The trend for the use of natural and bioactive products is very prevalent in the pet food industry. This is attributed to factors such as the expansion of the pet population, customer attitudes toward their pets as companions or family. As per Darling Ingredients, one of the major brand engaged in the production of plasma feed products quoted that plasma protein is a natural and sustainable source for pet food. It has several advantages such as water binding capacity, emulsifying properties, and palatability, which in turn drives the market for plasma feed among pet food manufacturers.

Increasing concerns over water withdrawal and government initiatives are the key factor driving the growth in the drip irrigation market during the forecast period

Drip irrigation helps minimize water loss due to evaporation by distributing water through a network of valves, pipes, tubing, and emitters. Drip irrigation methods are known to offer a significant advantage in efficiency against other conventional irrigation methods, including sprinkler and flooding. The adoption of micro irrigation technology has helped achieve higher cropping and irrigation intensity, which has made a significant impact on resource saving, cultivation cost, crop yield, and farm productivity. This technology has received considerable attention from policymakers and government for its perceived ability to contribute significantly toward agricultural productivity and economic growth.

By emitter type, inline emitters dominated the drip irrigation market

Emitters are the most crucial components of a drip irrigation system as they discharge water flowing through the lateral over the crop root area. The role of emitters is to discharge water at a predetermined rate and help prevent clogging. Inline emitters are usually present within the laterals with equal spacing. They may be flat boat-shaped, cylindrical, or may be attached to the inner wall of the lateral. Inline emitters are usually used for row crops or field crops. They help provide maximum resistance against clogging and are suitable for surface irrigation and subsurface irrigation. The end users of inline emitters have substantial labor savings, as emitters are preinstalled. The inline emitters are molded into the dripline, which helps negate the costs for additional emitters.
