ANIMAL FEED
MARKET STRUCTURE
The animal feed sector concerns itself with the production of poultry and ruminant feed. It is a key component of the Moroccan poultry industry and is also the sector’s most capital-intensive activity.
The animal feed industry, which is 70% dedicated to poultry feed (with the rest of production dedicated to ruminant feed), is still highly competitive, with approximately 40 specialized plants on the market.
The Moroccan animal feed sector is characterized by a large number of stakeholders, with several producers also integrating hatching and broiling activities.
