Wilmington, Delaware, United States, Jan. 10, 2024 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Transparency Market Research Inc. - The meat alternatives market was valued at US$ 42.6 billion in 2022. A CAGR of 6.3% is predicted between 2023 and 2031, resulting in a market size of US$ 73.8 billion. Continuing advancements in the field of nutritional technology, which include extraction of plant-based proteins, the development of fermentation processes, and the use of 3D printing are likely to result in more sustainable and realistic meat substitutes than ever before.
Meat alternatives could be developed in future iterations to gain nutritional value that matches or exceeds that of traditional meat. Health-conscious consumers may find it more appealing to purchase plant-based products that are fortified with nutrition, vitamins, and minerals.
Developing and commercializing cell-based or cultivated meat products will become increasingly important. As an alternative to traditional animal farming, the technique involves growing animal cells in the lab, which could improve sustainability and animal welfare. Governments can support open-source research, transparent and streamlined regulatory processes can be implemented, and subsidies to industrial animal agriculture can be reduced or redistributed in order to reduce food prices.
