The potential of New Foods

Getting more out of less

Efficiency challenges of protein production
To feed a growing population, we need to produce more food from a smaller caloric input. Today, we can see major efficiency challenges depending on the type of food protein. Poultry production, for example, requires 8 calories in to get 1 calorie out. Beef, meanwhile, requires a full 34 calories to produce a single calorie of beef. Plant-based alternatives already present one solution to these deficiencies. In the future, fermentation, meat cultivation and other New Food processes may further help us to meet the planet’s food needs in a more efficient way.1

Part of a growing movement2

Joining leading industry voices
As early as 2017, Fortune Magazine declared that “fermentation is the future of food tech.” They are among a growing chorus speaking out about the potential of fermentation and other New Food processes:

“We must reinvent the future of nutrition… If we don’t create a science-based industrial agriculture revolution, we won’t be able to feed the world.” - Avi Ben Assayag, CEO, Nestlé Israel

“Fonterra's stake in Motif will help us be part of the emerging next-generation fermentation-produced nutrition sector.” - Judith Swales, Head of Global Consumer and Foodservice Business, Fonterra

“Embrace what may be the most important green technology ever. It could save us all.” - George Monbiot, The Guardian
