Excerpt
Excerpt: The market for bird food1 is growing rapidly. By some estimates, growth is 4 percent per annum (Plimsoll, 2003). More disposable income and more leisure time in industrialized countries have led to an increased number of people keeping companion birds2. In addition many people have taken up breeding of exotic birds as a hobby, demanding bird food of high quality. At the same time, environmental awareness and an increase in nature-related and outdoor activities have stimulated the interest in bird watching as a backyard hobby and have led to an increase in the amount of backyard feeding of wild birds. Whereas until recently, the market for bird food was mainly concentrated in the industrialized countries of the northern hemisphere, sales of bird food in Mexico, Brazil and the Pacific Rim countries (notably Australia, Japan, Malaysia and Indonesia) have increased substantially over the past five years.
