THE FUTURE OFSAFE FOOD ISIMPORTANT !!

SIGNIFICANT FACTS AND STATISTICS It took the world population millions of years to reach the first billion of us 123 years to get to the second billion 33 years to the third billion 14 years to the fourth billion 13 years to the fifth billion The human population today stands at an estimated 7.9 billion, of whoman estimated 820 million (11% of the world population) areundernourished.

NOWEach degree-Celsius increase in globalmean temperature would, on average,reduce global yields of wheat by 6.0%,rice by 3.2%, maize by 7.4%, andsoybean by 3.1%

3D FOOD PRINTING COULD CHANGEFOOD FOREVER 3D food printing is the process ofmanufacturing food products using a variety ofadditive manufacturing techniques. Most commonly, food grade syringes hold theprinting material, which is then depositedthrough a food grade nozzle, layer by layer. The most advanced 3D food printers have preloaded recipes on board and also allow theuser to remotely design their food on theircomputers, phones or some IoT device. The food can be customized in shape, color,texture, flavor or nutrition, which makes itvery useful in various fields such as spaceexploration and healthcare.

Open Meals has announced a Japanese restaurant concept to create these beautiful 3Dprinted sushi.Called Sushi Singularity, the restaurant was due to open in Tokyo in 2020.

Making 3D printed foods will: Offer endless possibilities forthe shape, texture,composition, and ultimately,taste of food products in thefuture. Customize the final dish toyour specific demands andtastes - just like cookingfor yourself but without allthe work. Will greatly reduce the wasteproduced from 'conventional'cookingKFC 3D PRINTEDCHICKENNUGGETS Used to promote healthyhigh-tech food andcompletely redefine how weproduce 'recipes'.TEST MARKETEDIN RUSSIA LASTYEAR.

HIGH PRESSURE FOOD PROCESSING (HPP)It is a cold pasteurization process that introduces foods sealed in packaging, into a superhigh-pressure environment (88,000 pounds per square inch) that is transmitted by water.This technique effectively inactivates micro-organisms to guarantee food safety.This combination of a high pressure and low-temperature environment, safely maintainsthe taste, food, appearance, texture and nutritional value of the food.No irradiation or chemical preservatives are used in the process.

INSECT PROTEIN COULD REPLACE BEEF,CHICKEN, PORK, AND LAMBTwo Billion People Eat Insects as a part oftheir normal foods ! Insects contain about 60% protein Packed with vitamin B12 Has more calcium than milk Has more iron than spinach Can supply you with all the essential aminoacids your body needs. It requires much less water and requiresmuch less physical space. It can easily be ground up and used toreplace other protein in your favorite recipes.

A meat-free diet can lower therisk of heart disease, somecancers, and type 2 diabetes aswell as helping with weightloss.

BEEF AS AN EXAMPLE OF WATER INTHE FOOD WE EAT It takes 3 years to produce about 440pounds of boneless beef. During the 3 years, the cow consumesnearly 2,860 pounds of grains such aswheat, oats, barley, corn, dry peas,and other small grains. The cow also consumes 15,840 poundsof roughages such as pasture(grasses), dry hay, silage, and othertypes. The production of all the grainsand roughages requires 3,060,000liters (808,452 gallons) of water.REQUIREMENTS FOR 1 HAMBURGER PATTY

LAB-GROWN MEAT COULD MAKE ANIMALFARMS OBSOLETECultured or Cultivated meat is produced byin-vitro cell culture of animal cells, instead of fromslaughtered animals. It is a form of cellularagriculture.It has many advantages - moral, health,environmental, cultural, and economicconsiderations compared to conventional meat.There are currently 37 companies makingcultivated meat products or doing research todevelop them.“Greenhouse gas” emissions, such as methane,could be reduced by 96% if it were adopted largescale.Products like chicken nuggets, sausage, andeven foie gras are created by this technique.

ROBOTIC VERTICAL FARMINGIt is the practice of growing crops invertically stacked layers.It is controlled-environment agriculture,which aims to optimize plant growth, anduses soilless farming techniques suchas hydroponics, aquaponics, andaeroponics and conveyors to move theplant containers.As of 2020, there is the equivalent of about74 acres of operational vertical farmland inthe world.Current applications of vertical farmingcoupled with other state-of-the-arttechnologies, such as specialized LEDlights, have resulted in over 10 timesthe crop yield than would receivethrough traditional farming methods.https://www.youtube.com/watch?v SR5kefWuYuY3.7 min

FOODS OF TOMORROWAbout 2,500 plant species have beendomesticated for food. But today, almosthalf our food calories come from justthree grains: wheat, maize, and rice.Here are a few other promisingexamples:Algae: Seaweed and other algae, alreadypopular in Japan, are highly nutritious andcan be grown in both fresh water and saltwater.Insects: Over 2,000 species of insects arealready eaten worldwide, including mopaneworms in South Africa.Insects are high in protein and require muchless land, water, and food than animals raisedfor meat.INSECT POWDERPROTEIN

Emmer wheat: While millionsare spent on high-tech hybrids,neglected crops like the grainemmer wheat requires lessfertilizer and fewerpesticides than currently usedbreeds, are already being grownin places like Turkey.Minor millets: These cerealshave been grown in Asia for6,500 years. Many farmers inIndia and Nepal are nowswitching from growing cropslike maize and rice back totraditional varieties bred togrow on local mountainsides.

Peach palm: The peach palm growswell in Central and South America andproduces a large, nutritious fruit.Giant swamp taro: The giant swamptaro which grows well in the salty, sandysoil of many Pacific islands, is rich invitamins and minerals.Yellow varieties are high in betacarotene, which can help preventblindness.Sea buckthorn: It uses nitrogen fromthe air as fertilizer, thanks to specializedbacteria in its roots.The berries are hard to pick, but newmachines should help with the harvest.

SOLAR FOODS PREPARES TO COMMERCIALIZE NOVEL PROTEINSOLEIN IN 4TH QUARTER OF 2022It is a climate-friendly, novel protein developed in Finland and they describes itas ‘made from air’It is 100 times more climate friendly than any animal or plant-basedalternative and 10 times more efficient than soy productionThey make it from Carbon Dioxide gas (CO₂), air and electricity and ituses a fermentation process but instead of yeast, they use a‘completely natural’ proprietary organism and instead of sugars, thisbacteria eats CO₂ and hydrogen for its source of carbon and energy.For the nitrogen, it is produced from nitrogen in the air by combiningit with hydrogen.They feed the bacteria with the CO₂ and hydrogen bubbles and itgrows and multiplies.”In its dry powdered format, Solein’s nutritional profile could be compared tothat of soy, algae, or some animal-based proteins. It contains 50% protein,5-10% fat, 20-25% carbohydrates, and Vitamin B.2.5 minutes https://www.youtube.com/watch?v 5-VapzvkBZE

NEWTECHNOLOGIESFOR FARMING

WHAT ISPRECISIONAGRICULTURE?Precision agricultureseeks to use newtechnologies toincrease crop yieldsand profitability whilelowering the levels oftraditional inputsneeded to grow crops(land, water,fertilizer, herbicidesand insecticides).In other words,farmers utilizingprecisionagriculture areusing less to growmore.SNSS - Simulated Navigation Satellite System

WHAT ARE SOME OF THE NEWFARMING TECHNOLOGIES ?GPS DEVICES ON TRACTORSIt allows farmers to plant crops in moreefficient patterns and proceed from point Ato point B with more precision, saving timeand fuel.LEVELING FIELDS WITH LASERSThis means water can be applied moreefficiently and with less farm effluentrunning off into local streams and rivers.The result can be a boon for farmers andholds great potential for makingagriculture more sustainable andincreasing food availability.

An open-source project calledISOBlue, dreamed-up byPurdue University students,hopes to unleash the vastamounts of data that modernfarm equipment cangenerate by transmitting itwirelessly via bluetooth to thecellphones of farmers,agronomists, entrepreneurs andresearchers.Drones can be used for cropdusting and can takecontinuous pictures ofcrops so farmers can monitorplant health without sendingscouts out into the fields.This would allow for morecontrolled, precise fungicideand insecticide application.

ROBOTS: From a small Rowbotdesigned to apply fertilizer preciselybetween rows of corn to a lettucebot that pulls weeds.Nimble robots are also beingdeveloped to check for pestproblems in fields.TerraSentia uses a variety ofsensors—including visual cameras,LIDAR and other on-board sensorsto autonomously collect data ontraits for plant health, physiology,and stress response.

USING THE INTERNETOF THINGS (Iot)Sensors can detect a range of biomolecular,chemical, optical, thermal, electrical, radiation,and biological metrics to get a 360-degree viewon the health of crops.By mounting health monitoring sensors onanimals, farmers can track the state of livestock inreal time.Location monitoring tools with GPSsatellites are widely used to estimate theamount of water in the soil, crop biomass, andmany other things.The data collected by connected GPS satellitesor a location monitoring solution is then used bycrop insurance companies, governments,scientists, policymakers, and commodity bodies.
