Chicken egg production in Türkiye exceeded 1.9 billion units in January, reaching its highest level in the past three years. While double-digit annual growth stood out, industry representatives highlighted strong production capacity and supply security.
The all-out war launched by the United States and Israel against Iran has turned the Strait of Hormuz into a logistical chokepoint, shaking global agricultural and energy markets. This nuclear-risk escalation in the Middle East has the potential to bring the entire production chain from fertilizer costs to feed raw materials to a standstill.
According to the London-based International Grains Council (IGC), world grains production is forecast to reach a historic 2,460 Mt in 2025/26, driven by record wheat and maize harvests. Yet soybean and barley markets are showing early signs of tightening, signaling potential pressures for feed supply chains.
The IPARD III Program, implemented in cooperation between Türkiye and the European Union, has published its 2026 call schedule.
IDMA aims to bring professional visitors from more than 140 countries to Istanbul as the Turkish feed and flour milling machinery industry prepares to showcase its manufacturing strength and export performance on a global stage.
Feed formulation has traditionally aimed to meet nutritional requirements at the lowest cost. While least-cost formulation remains important, increasing raw material variability, mycotoxin risk, and performance pressure have added complexity.
The interim trade agreement signed between India and the United States aims to strengthen feed supply security in response to rising demand. Tariff reductions on products such as DDGS and red sorghum are intended to ease the pressure created by supply constraints in maize and soy.
Europe’s food security depends on a stable supply of specialty feed ingredients, yet high import dependency leaves the sector vulnerable to geopolitical risks and market shocks.
Türkiye’s feed industry grew above the national economic average in 2025, crossing the 30 million tonne threshold in compound feed production.
Smart automation is no longer a competitive advantage, it is the baseline. What separates truly high-performing feed mills today is not whether they have automated, but how deeply they understand, own, and integrate what they have built.
Türkiye’s leading pet food exporter, Lider Pet Food, produces not only pet food but also ‘the recipe for happiness for our companion animals’ at its 70,000-square-meter technology hub in Manisa, Türkiye.
Volatile raw materials, rising energy costs and tighter quality demands are putting feed mills under pressure. Andritz outlines how predictive control can help operators stabilize drying, reduce energy use and improve yield.
Geopolitics, regulation, animal health risks, and cost pressures are setting the tone for animal protein and animal nutrition markets in 2026. This market outlook explores how these forces are reshaping production, trade flows, feed economics, and sustainability strategies across global supply chains.
Europe’s feed market is moving through the 2025/26 season under uncertainty, driven by regulatory developments, animal disease risks and shifting global supply dynamics.
Poultry performance is inseparable from the functional integrity of the gastrointestinal tract, yet the concept of “gut health” has expanded to a point where it no longer offers sufficient precision for modern production systems.

The transition period in dairy cows is a critical phase characterized by increased production of reactive oxygen species (ROS) due to elevated metabolic demands and negative energy balance.
Transition dairy cows face a critical window where metabolic pressures peak. Oxidative stress during this phase can quietly undermine health and productivity. Understanding its risks and mitigation strategies is becoming essential for modern dairy management.
Flake technologies enable a controlled physical and biochemical transformation of starch-based grains, improving energy utilization efficiency in ruminant nutrition.
Volatile input costs, rising energy prices and shifting regulations are forcing feed mills to rethink how and where they invest. Growth is no longer measured by capacity alone, but by efficiency, flexibility and the ability to operate reliably under pressure. Across markets, investment decisions are becoming more selective, more strategic and more closely tied to long-term resilience. The question facing the industry is no longer how much to build, but how wisely.
