4. Development of China’s Forage Feed Industry from 2010 to
2012
4.1 Industry Scale
4.1.1 Overall Scale
In 2011, the total yield of China’s industrial feed was 181 million tons with the year-on-year growth of 11.7%, and the overall scale has ranked first place all over the world; the qualified rate was 95.5%, increased by 3.1 percentage points compared with 2005; there were 30 feed enterprises that with the annual output of more than 500,000 tons, their output accounted for 42% of China’s total output, increased by 17 percentage points over 2005. The industrial level was further improved.
In 2011, the grass reserve volume was about 2 billion kilograms; the area of artificial grass was 635,000 mu; the cultivated area of high-yielding feed was 800,000 mu; and the number of forage processing and marketing enterprises is 13.
In 2011, alfalfa cultivated area was close to 3.775 million hectares; hay yield was 23 million-25 million tons; and the annual commodity grass output was about 500,000 tons.
With the development of China’s forage feed industry, the output of domestic forage products will develop at the growth rate of 10%; in 2012, the output of domestic forage products was about 2.3 million tons.
5. Operation of China’s Forage Feed Industry in Key Regions
5.1 Inner Mongolia
5.1.1 Status Quo
Inner Mongolia is China’s major grassland distribution area with the natural grassland area of 1.2 billion hectares, accounting for 63% of the total regional area and 22% of total China’s grassland; of which, 960 million hectares are available, accounting for 80% of region’s total grassland area.
