Abstract

Bio-manufacturing: The future of food production The future of food production is bio-manufacturing. Here, we discover Multus is helping it scale. Without humans, just 3% of land-based mammals are wild animals by weight. Global meat production eclipsed 347,000,000,000 kg in 2022 (OECD/FAO, 2023), contributing to more greenhouse gas emissions than cars, trucks, ships and planes combined and using 73% of global antibiotics (K. Tiseo et al., 2020). By 2050, the World Health Organization estimates up to 10 million deaths – the same as cancer – could be caused by antibiotic-resistant superbugs. Our consumption of meat from intensive farming is literally consuming the planet. Yet, global demand for meat continues to rise. Over the next ten years, meat demand is set to increase by an additional 41,000,000,000 kg per year (OECD/FAO, 2023).
