Protein is one of the most important nutrients for the human body, and except for water it constitutes the biggest share of our body weight. As the human population increases there is a growing demand for animal protein, and especially in Asia there is now a new demand for healthier foods.

The United Nations predicts the world's population will grow to 9.7billion by 2050. As a result, the world is facing a serious protein shortage.* United Nations World Population Prospects, the 2010 Revision

Land animals such as cattle, pigs, and chickens have been farmed by humans for thousands of years and their production has grown over the millennia to meet increases in population and food demand. However, these industries are now facing significant roadblocks to further expansion and growth. Suitable land space to produce food is limited and similarly their is a lack of freshwater resources mostly due to competition with cities, factories, and intensive forms of agriculture. Meanwhile the global demand for protein continues to rise.
