Europe Hemp Seeds Market was worth USD xx billion in 2020 and estimated to be growing at a CAGR of xx%, to reach USD xx billion by 2025.
Hemp or generally called Industrial hemp is native to the northern hemisphere and it is a variety of the Cannabis sativa plant species which is specifically grown for the industrial uses of its products. It is one of the fastest growing plants and spun into usable fibre very quickly. It is industrially refined into textiles, paper, biodegradable plastics, clothing, biofuel, paint, food and animal feed. It contains a small amount of naturally occurring tetrahydrocannabinoids (THC) with unique phytochemical compositions and uses.
Hemp seed is the most nutritious seed in the world and it is a huge source of protein and minerals. It has the most concentrated balance of proteins, essential fats, vitamins and enzymes combined with a relative absence of sugar, starches and saturated fats. Hemp oil is used in body care products, cleaning products, health foods, textiles and plastics. In medical use, it is used in treatment of hormone problems, cancer, arthritis and joint pains, weight loss, digestive and heart disorders. Some countries have stringent regulations for the concentration of THC and permit only hemp that is bred with an especially low THC content.
Factors driving for the growth of Europe Hemp Seeds Market are growing health awareness, many health advantages and benefits of hemp seeds, it is used to reduce toxic substances and heals immune deficiency diseases, rich source of vitamins and nutrients, increase in disposable income, rise in population, growth in textile and fibre industry, product innovations and technology advancements.

Food extrusion is a form of expulsion used in food processing by which a set of mixed components is applied through an opening in a perforated plate or die with a specific food project, then drawn to a size defined by blades. The equipment that forces the mix through the perforated plate is an extruder, and the mix is known as an extrudate. The extruder includes huge rotating screws that fit securely into a stationary barrel at the end of it. Industries are widely instilling the use of food extrusion due to growing demand, from the humanization of pets to the growing population of pets.

The increasing demand for extrusion pet food has fuelled the demand for pet food extrusion equipment as it improves the quality of pet food, as well as the benefits of physical fitness and sizing, which helps meet the demand for premium and super premium food products for long-lived pets. The growing acceptance of pet adoption and the rapid development of emerging economies are driving growth in this market. However, the lack of knowledge of the type of food served because the immune power varies in each animal can be a problem for various allergic diseases. This in turn hinders market growth. The growth of the pet population and the humanization of pets are some of the factors that should stimulate growth in this market.
Market Segmentation:
The global Pet Food Extrusion market can be segmented into type, animal type and equipment type. The growing demand for nutrient-rich extruded balanced foods has fueled growth across the entire diet segment. The entire diet segment is subdivided into dry and semi-wet pet food products. Expanded dry pet food is the most important segment, which is expected to grow at a higher annual growth rate during the forecast period. The increasing demand for premium and super premium pet products and the benefits of dry pet food, such as a longer shelf life, have stimulated demand for this sub-segment in recent years. During the forecast period, the single screw extruder segment is expected to grow to the highest CAGR in the global pet food extrusion equipment market in terms of value and volume. Various advantages, such as the low capital cost and simplicity offered by single screw extruders, have spurred growth in this segment in recent years. A single screw extruder offers simplicity and ease of operation, while a twin screw extruder offers versatility and flexibility. Low investment cost and ease of maintenance are some of the main factors responsible for the high demand for single screw extruders.
Impact of covid-19 on Pet Food Extrusion Market
Agriculture is the backbone of any economy. It is the primary sector that generates employment so that the entire circle of economic circulation continues. For instance, when we talk about the Indian economy, the majority of the population is limited to this sector. With the pandemic underway, the livelihoods of all farmers and people involved in this sector are at high risk. Key authors and researchers have said there could be a food crisis unless steps are taken quickly to protect the most vulnerable food supply chains. Lack of labor availability has hampered operations in many regions. Consequently, the shortage of migrant labor has led to a sharp increase in daily crop wages. Some parts of agriculture that have the luxury of implementing harvesting technologies, such as rice and wheat, are relatively more isolated, as they often do not have to rely on large numbers of labor. Agricultural prices have plummeted due to lack of access to markets, including disruption of transport and closing of borders. Increased labor costs and lack of access mean that farmers face large losses and thus allow crops to rot in the fields, a better loss stop mechanism.

North America Aquaponics System Market was worth USD 321.31 million in 2020 and estimated to be growing at a CAGR of 12.7%, to reach USD 491.19 million by 2025.
Aquaponics system is the combination of aquaculture and hydroponics together in an ideal environment. Aquaculture is the growing of aquatic animals like fish, prawns and other aquatic animals. Hydroponics is cultivating of plants in water without soil. The aquaculture waste provides organic food for the plants. In return, plants naturally clean the water that goes back to fish. The third participant is microbes which provides nutrition for the plants. The microbes convert ammonia from the fish waste into nitrites and then into nitrates which is the form of nitrogen that plants can uptake and use to grow. The result is a perfect collaboration between aquaculture and hydroponics.
Aquaponics is a perfect hope for sustainable aquaculture, organic crop production, and water consumption. Basically, aquaponics and hydroponics uses the same systems, there aren’t many differences in how the system works, except for the added fish in the water tanks. Ph control is very important part of aquaponics. Flood and drain, drip irrigation, deep culture or water submerged roots, and nutrient film techniques are highly compatible and customizable to merge with growing fish. Few primary methods of aquaponics that are growing widely are Deep water culture, Media-based aquaponics, Nutrient Film Technique and Vertical Aquaponics. Aquaponics are becoming famous as an efficient way to produce food and eco-friendly.
