"Report Identifies Research Priorities to Sustainably Meet Expected Increase in Global Demand for Animal Protein"

"Meeting the expected growth in global demand for animal protein in a way that is economically, environmentally, and socially sustainable will require a greater investment in animal science research, says a new report from the National Research Council."  ("Report Identifies Research Priorities to Sustainably Meet Expected Increase in Global Demand for Animal Protein", 2015)

"Dramatic increases in global demand for food from animal agriculture -- meat, fish, eggs, and dairy - are projected to occur by 2050, due to a predicted increase in world population to between 9 billion and 10 billion and to an expected growth in demand for animal protein as developing countries urbanize and see increases in individual incomes. The United Nations Food and Agriculture Organization estimates that by 2050 there will be a 73 percent increase in meat and egg consumption and a 58 percent increase in dairy consumption over 2011 levels."  ("Report Identifies Research Priorities to Sustainably Meet Expected Increase in Global Demand for Animal Protein", 2015)
