Have you ever wondered about the environmental impact of livestock agriculture? Shockingly, it consumes vast resources:

26% of global land is used for livestock grazing.
33% of arable land goes to fodder and feed production.
Livestock consumes nearly 30% of global agricultural water.
Livestock contributes to 14.5% of worldwide greenhouse gas emissions.

Cultured meat offers a sustainable, delicious, healthier, and cruelty-free alternative that's also eco-friendly. However, challenges remain, like sourcing cost-effective proteins and growth factors.

At GenScript, with over two decades of expertise in recombinant proteins, we're eager to collaborate with cultured meat pioneers. Together, we can overcome industry hurdles and shape the future of food!
