Butyric acid is a fatty acid that is mainly derived from animal fats. It is mainly used in the production of esters that are used in various applications. A colorless carboxylic acid produced by bacterial fermentation of carbohydrates and fibers. Butyric acid is also found in cheese, butter, milk, vegetable oils and animal fats. It has an unpleasant odour and a sharp taste. The development of renewable butyric acid is expected to play an important role in increasing market demand. Butyric acid is gaining popularity as an ingredient in animal feed. Butyric acid is the most important starting material for various butyrates and glycerol esters, so-called butyrins. Salts are incorporated into feed premixes in fat-coated or uncoated dosage forms to deliver the active ingredient to target organs in the intestine of the animal. Butyric acid derivatives are used (mainly) as feed additives in cattle, poultry and aquaculture industries. Butyric acid is essential for animals and is used as an ingredient to help animals meet their necessary health requirements. Butyric acid is a useful ingredient for the animal feed industry. Butyric acid products help improve health, provide proper nutrition to animals, and help them grow more efficiently.
Owing to the pandemic scenario, several countries went into lockdown which led to supply chain disruptions, work stoppages, and labour shortages. Covid-19 pandemic had major negative effects on the pharmaceutical industry. It had created issues like medicine consumption pattern changes due to the unavailability of medicines, in turn slowing down the growth of the industry. Covid-19 has created medication shortages in many parts of the world at the beginning of the outbreak. The lockdown also slowed down the operations of several applications of the market studied, which has resulted in reduced demand for butyric acid, in comparison to the pre-Covid-19 period. This has impacted the butyric acid market.
