Scherm­afbeelding 2025-08-20 om 11.11.44

Bioprocessing is the new way forward to produce meat without intensive livestock farming. In the future, many high-value ingredients and products will be bio-manufactured, along with cell-free methodologies for developing
more sustainable food for everyday life to overcome the limitations of traditional products that significantly need more water, energy, and land space. Innovative food technologies such as molecular agriculture, regenerative agriculture and precision fermentation have a good chance of becoming a second pilar for meeting the growing
demand for cultivated meat and -fish without adding further to ecological and environmental degradation.
