The rising need for superior quality meat is anticipated to boost the advancement of the agricultural disinfectants sector. Meat, a processed item, is derived from the treatment of livestock or additional processing of similar creatures. Meanwhile, a different category of meat product exists, where the traits of fresh meat are modified through methods such as mincing, grinding, chopping, and salting to assure customer satisfaction in terms of meat quality. The quality of meat is determined by diverse factors, such as the animal's genetical blueprint, its rearing conditions, and its nutritional status during the production phase. This specific requisition of certain genetic traits within livestock farming has escalated the need for agricultural disinfectants to safeguard area hygiene. For example, Dezan Shira & Associates, a multidisciplinary professional service firm based in China, reported that China produced about 92.27 million tons of meat in 2022, which was a leap of 3.8% compared to the previous year, in February 2023. Thus, the swelling demand for high-quality meat products is anticipated to fuel the expansion of the agricultural disinfectants market.
