“The power of the animal farming sector, both in the US and in Europe, and the political influence they have is just gigantic,” said Prof Eric Lambin, who conducted the study with Dr Simona Vallone, both at Stanford University, US. The researchers concluded that “powerful vested interests exerted their political influence to maintain the system unchanged and to obstruct competition created by technological innovations”. Lambin said: “We found that the amazing obstacles to the upscaling of the alternative technologies relates to public policies that still massively fund the incumbent system, when we know it’s really part of the problem in terms of climate change, biodiversity loss and some health issues.” The researchers said that tackling the problem would require government policies that ensured the price of meat reflected its environmental costs, potentially via taxation, increased research on alternatives, and better informed consumers.

[...]

The study, published in the journal One Earth, analysed the major EU and US agricultural policies from 2014 to 2020. It found the amount of public money spent on plant-based alternatives was just $42m (£33m) – 0.1% of the £35bn spent on meat and dairy. The former accounted for 1.5% of all sales. In the EU, cattle farmers got at least 50% of their income from direct subsidies. For research and innovation spending, 97% went to animal farmers, with almost all of these funds aimed at improving production.

Too late for me!

I am not a farmer, neither am I good businessman! Against expert advice, I bought the loss making dairy farm for all the wrong reasons... the main one being my mother's love of cows.

When I acquired the dairy in 2018 it only had 67 milk producing cows, all of which were elderly. I spent (or invested) a fortune on renovating/replacing the barns and milking stalls. I also renovated the eight cottages... one of which is rented out privately, and the others provide accommodation for my full-time farm workers.

I also had staff accommodation unit built, with kitchen/toilets/showers, plus a common room, and single bed accommodation above for temporary workers.

The dairy farm has done unexpectedly well... thanks to Dairy Manager Cowboy Carl and his assistant Mike, The Milky Bar Kid.

The dairy herd is now close to 400 ladies, and next month a second robotic milking stall will be installed, before we increase the herd to around 600 by 2026.

Bill Gates’ carcinogenic lab-grown meat business has proven to be such a spectacular failure that the billionaire is now begging government’s to subsidise his fake meat companies to keep them afloat.

Preliminary data from the venture capital firm AgFunder shows that funding in the fake meats sector fell by 78% in 2023 to reach $177 million, down from $807 million in 2022 and a peak of $989 million in 2021.

Naturalnews.com reports: In response to the steep drop in investments, many lab meat startups have been slashing staff numbers and consolidating operations, while others are closing their doors entirely. Now, they want taxpayers to shoulder the burden of helping them right the ship after taking a chance on something that many of us knew from the start was doomed to fail.

At the Future Food-Tech Innovation Summit that was recently held in London, cultivated meat industry reps insisted that governments need to get on board.

Mosa Meat Vice President of Global Public Affairs Robert Jones warned that “[t]here’s a valley of death we’re not going to cross as an industry without a massive infusion of public investment.”

For example, Poland recently gave a 2 million euro grant to a company producing cultured meat. In 2022, the Dutch government announced it would give $65 million of public funding to support meat cultivation from cells and the production of animal-friendly dairy.

Proponents of alternative proteins have complained that the USDA has only put $124 million toward subsidizing them, while the USDA has given livestock operators subsidies of more than $59 billion.

“One of the biggest failures in food history”

Once touted as the solution to everything from global warming to hunger, it is becoming more and more difficult to ignore the serious flaws in lab-grown meat. Not only is it not quite as environmentally friendly as its producers want us to think, but the health risks it poses could be significant.

US: Breast cancer deaths have decreased by 44% since 1989, despite an increase in cases

- By Nuadox Crew -

Breast cancer rates in the U.S. have been rising, particularly among younger women and Asian Americans, according to a study by the American Cancer Society.

From 2012 to 2021, breast cancer cases increased by 1% annually, with rates growing faster for women under 50 than those older. Asian American women saw the most rapid increase in incidence, possibly linked to immigration patterns. Despite this, the breast cancer death rate has declined by 44% since 1989, preventing over 517,900 deaths.

However, the benefits of medical advancements have been unevenly distributed. Black women have a 38% higher mortality rate than White women, despite having lower breast cancer incidence, due to systemic racism and less access to quality care. Native American mortality rates have remained unchanged since 1990. The report calls for more racial diversity in clinical trials and improved access to high-quality screening for underserved women.

In April, the U.S. Preventive Services Task Force recommended that women begin biennial breast cancer screenings starting at age 40, adjusting its previous guidance.

In 2023, the market was valued at approximately USD 20 billion and is projected to grow at a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 5-6% through 2030. This growth is attributed to rising global population, changing dietary preferences, and increased awareness about animal nutrition.

Key Growth Drivers

Rising Meat Consumption: The global population is expected to reach 9.7 billion by 2050, driving demand for animal protein. As incomes rise, particularly in developing nations, dietary habits shift towards higher meat and dairy consumption. This has fueled the demand for high-protein animal feed to ensure efficient livestock production.

Advancements in Animal Nutrition: Research and development in animal nutrition have led to the formulation of feed products with optimized protein content, enhancing livestock growth rates and productivity. These innovations have contributed to the increased adoption of specialized protein ingredients in feed.

Sustainability Initiatives: The focus on sustainable agriculture has spurred interest in alternative protein sources like insect meal and algae-based proteins. These options offer a lower environmental footprint compared to traditional sources like soybean and fish meal, aligning with the goals of eco-conscious consumers and regulatory bodies.

Growth in Aquaculture: The aquaculture sector is expanding rapidly, with fish and shrimp farming becoming significant contributors to global food supply. Protein-rich feeds are essential for aquaculture, further driving demand for ingredients like fish meal and plant-based proteins.

Challenges Facing the Market

Volatility in Raw Material Prices: The prices of key protein sources, such as soybean and fish meal, are highly susceptible to fluctuations due to factors like climate change, geopolitical tensions, and trade policies. This price volatility poses challenges for feed manufacturers.

Regulatory Constraints: Stringent regulations regarding the use of animal-based protein sources in feed, especially in regions like Europe, can limit market growth. Compliance with these regulations often requires significant investments in research and production.

Competition from Synthetic Alternatives: The emergence of synthetic amino acids and other non-traditional protein sources is creating competition within the market. While these alternatives can reduce dependency on conventional ingredients, they also introduce new complexities for feed manufacturers.

Future Trends and Opportunities

Adoption of Precision Nutrition: Precision nutrition, which tailors feed formulations to the specific needs of different livestock species and production goals, is gaining traction. This approach enhances feed efficiency and reduces waste, driving demand for high-quality protein ingredients.

Expansion of Insect Protein: Insect-based protein is emerging as a sustainable and cost-effective alternative. With reduced land and water requirements, insect farming is gaining support from investors and policymakers.

Technological Innovations: Advances in biotechnology, such as fermentation technology and genetic engineering, are paving the way for novel protein sources. These innovations could revolutionize the market by providing scalable and sustainable solutions.

Regional Growth in Asia-Pacific and Latin America: Developing regions, particularly in Asia-Pacific and Latin America, are witnessing significant growth in livestock farming. This trend is expected to drive demand for protein-rich feed ingredients in these markets.
