Can humanity feed nearly 10 billion people without frying the planet? That question is at the heart of journalist Michael Grunwald's provocative argument in Sorry, This Is the Future of Food, his recent New York Times essay and the basis of his forthcoming book, We Are Eating the Earth. He warns that we're clearing an acre of rainforest every six seconds to grow more food — and even if we quit fossil fuels, we won't avert climate chaos unless we fix how we use land. In this episode, Grunwald makes the case that high-yield industrial agriculture, for all its flaws, might be our best chance to grow more food on less land. For more info, transcript and resources, visit: https://tabledebates.org/podcast/episode84Pre-order We Are Eating the Earth by Michael Grunwald.Want to share your reflections on the episode?

Is this the future of sustainable food, or are we just creating ultra-processed Frankenfoods? In This Episode, You'll Discover: What 3D-printed food actually is (spoiler: it's not made with a regular inkjet printer, but that would be hilarious). The companies already selling 3D-printed vegan meats—yes, you can eat 3D-printed salmon! How lab-grown meat is made (hint: no animals are slaughtered, but animal cells are involved). The ethical debate—should vegans eat lab-grown meat? Why customisable macros in printed food could be a keto dream. The potential downsides—hello, ultra-processed food concerns! Best Moments "These food printers are becoming more readily available, and lots of restaurants are using them for their menus." "This is the amazing thing about 3D-printed food. You can add the nutrients that you want to make them more nutrient-dense." "Lab-grown meat is not publicly available yet, but they reckon in two years' time, we will be able to purchase it as they develop the methods." "Would you eat 3D-printed plant meats?

Our European Sustainability Strategists Rachel Fletcher and Arushi Agarwal discuss how fermentation presents a new opportunity to tap into the alternative proteins market, offering a solution to mounting food supply challenges.Read more insights from Morgan Stanley. ----- Transcript -----Rachel Fletcher: Welcome to Thoughts on the Market. I'm Rachel Fletcher Morgan Stanley's, Head of EMEA Sustainability Research.Arushi Agarwal: And I'm Arushi Agarwal European Sustainability Strategist, based in London.Rachel Fletcher: From kombucha to kimchi, probiotic rich fermented foods have long been staples at health-focused grocers. On the show today, a deeper dive into the future of fermentation technology. Does it hold the key to meeting the world's growing nutrition needs as people live longer, healthier lives?It's Wednesday, 26th of March, at 3 pm in London.Many of you listening may remember hearing about longevity. It's one of our four long-term secular themes that we're following closely at Morgan Stanley; and this year we are looking even more closely at a sub-theme – affordable, healthy nutrition. Arushi, in your recent report, you highlight that traditional agriculture is facing many significant challenges. What are they and how urgent is this situation?Arushi Agarwal: There are four key environmental and social issues that we highlight in the note. Now, the first two, which are related to emissions intensity and resource consumption are quite well known. So traditional agriculture is responsible for almost a third of global greenhouse gas emissions, and it also uses more than 50 percent of the world's land and freshwater resources. What we believe are issues that are less focused on – are related to current agricultural practices and climate change that could affect our ability to serve the rising demand for nutrition.We highlight some studies in the note. One of them states that the produce that we have today has on average 40 percent less nutrition than it did over 80 years ago; and this is due to elevated use of chemicals and decline in soil fertility. Another study that we refer to estimates that average yields could decline by 30 to 50 percent before the end of the century, and this is even in the slowest of the warming scenarios.Rachel Fletcher: I think everyone would agree that there are four very serious issues. Are there potential solutions to these challenges?Arushi Agarwal: Yes, so when we've written about the future of food previously, we've identified alternative proteins, precision agriculture, and seeds technology as possible solutions for improving food security and reducing emissions.If I focus on alternative proteins, this category has so far been dominated by plant-based food, which has seen a moderation in growth due to challenges related to taste and price. However, we still see significant need for alternative proteins, and synthetic biology-led fermentation is a new way to tap into this market.In simple terms, this technology involves growing large amounts of microorganisms in tanks, which can then be harvested and used as a source of protein or other nutrients. We believe this technology can support healthy longevity, provide access to reliable and affordable food, and also fill many of the nutritional gaps that are related to plant-based food.Rachel Fletcher: So how big is the fermentation market and why are we focusing on it right now?Arushi Agarwal: So, we estimate a base case of $30 billion by 2030. This represents a 5,000-kiloton market for fermented proteins. We think the market will develop in two phases. Phase one from 2025 to 2027 will be focused on whey protein and animal nutrition. We are already seeing a few players sell products at competitive prices in these markets. Moving on to phase two from 2028 to 2030, we expect the market will expand to the egg, meat and daily replacement industry.There are a few reasons we think investors should start paying attention now. 2024 was a pivotal year in validating the technology's proof of concept. A lot of companies moved from labs to pilot state. They achieved regulatory approvals to sell their products in markets like U.S. and Singapore, and they also conducted extensive market testing. As this technology scales, we believe the next three years will be critical for commercialization.Rachel Fletcher: So, there's potentially significant growth there, but what's the capital investment needed for this scaling effort?Arushi Agarwal: A lot of CapEx will be required. Scaling of this technology will require large initial CapEx, predominantly in setting up bioreactors or fermentation tanks. Achieving our 2030 base case stamp will require 200 million liters in bioreactor capacity. This equals to an initial investment opportunity of a hundred billion dollars. But once these facilities are all set up, ongoing expenses will focus on input costs for carbon, oxygen, water, nitrogen, and electricity. PWC estimates that 40 to 60 percent of the ongoing costs with this process are associated with electricity, which makes it a key consideration for future commercial investments.Rachel Fletcher: Now we've talked a lot about the potential opportunity and the potential total addressable market, but what about consumer preferences? Do you think they'll be easy to shift?Arushi Agarwal: So, we are already seeing evidence of shifting consumer trends, which we think can be supportive of demand for fermented proteins. An analysis of Google Trends, data shows that since 2019, interest in terms like high protein diet and gut health has increased the most. Some of the products we looked at within the fermentation space not only contain fiber as expected, but they also offer a high degree of protein concentration, a lot of times ranging from 60 to 90 percent.Additionally, food manufacturers are focusing on new format foods that provide more than one use case. For example, free from all types of allergens. Fermentation technology utilizes a very diverse range of microbial species and can provide solutions related to non-allergenic foods.Rachel Fletcher: We've covered a lot today, but I do want to ask a final question around policy support. What's the government's role in developing the alternative proteins market, and what's your outlook around policy in Europe, the U.S., and other key regions, for example?Arushi Agarwal: This is an important question. Growth of fermentation technology hinges on adequate policy support; not just to enable the technology, but also to drive demand for its products. So, in the note, we highlight various instances of ongoing policy support from across the globe. For example, regulatory approvals in the U.S., a cellular agriculture package in Netherlands, plant-based food fund in Denmark, Singapore's 30 by 30 strategy.We believe these will all be critical in boosting the supply side of fermented products. We also mentioned Denmark's upcoming legislation on carbon tax related to agriculture emissions. We believe this could provide an indirect catalyst for demand for fermented goods. Now, whilst these initiatives support the direction of travel for this technology, it's important to acknowledge that more policy support will be needed to create a level playing field versus traditional agriculture, which as we know currently benefits from various subsidies.Rachel Fletcher: Arushi, this has been really interesting. Thanks so much for taking the time to talk.Arushi Agarwal: Thank you, Rachel. It was great speaking with you,Rachel Fletcher: And thanks for listening.

Texas Slim joins medical experts to reveal how centralized control over the food supply is escalating under the guise of biosecurity.Key themes include:Bird Flu Mandates: USDA protocols leading to the mass culling of poultry and cattle herds, even when animals show no symptoms, raising concerns about food supply manipulation.Food Supply Disruption: The destruction of over 156 million poultry and questionable avian flu testing procedures are inflating food prices and threatening independent farmers.mRNA Vaccines in Livestock: Growing fears around forced vaccination of beef and poultry with mRNA-based products, particularly in imported meat from countries like China.One Health Framework: CDC and WHO-led global policies integrating human, animal, and environmental health, which critics argue prioritize control over public safety.Consumer Solutions: Texas Slim emphasizes direct relationships with local ranchers as the antidote—reclaiming food sovereignty through community-based agriculture and buying beef direct from trusted producers.Notable Quotes:Texas Slim: “There's a lot of deception in our food systems. We need a voice for the rancher and the consumer—to cut through this noise.”Dr. Lynn Fynn: “Asymptomatic animals don't spread bird flu. This is a fabricated crisis designed to justify more control.”Dr. Kat Lindley: “The One Health Framework is already here. It's driving the war on poultry and beef—most people have no idea.”Why This Matters: The conversation cuts to the heart of America's food crisis—centralized control vs. community self-reliance. As regulatory overreach and questionable science threaten our ranchers, consumers face rising prices and uncertain meat quality.The solution? Know Your Rancher.

Get ready for an eye-opening conversation with the legendary Joel Salatin, founder of , as we dissect the future of the food supply and economy in the United States. Joel brings his trademark wit and wisdom to a discussion about economic scenarios like recession and hyperinflation, using a wasp nest analogy to predict how these challenges could impact food production. From deficit spending to potential government interventions, we explore the instability that might arise and the resilience needed to navigate such uncertain times. We also dive into the world of direct food sourcing, emphasizing the importance of cutting down on ultra-processed foods and fostering connections with local farmers. Learn how to fortify your food supply by exploring farmer's markets, community-supported agriculture, and even backyard gardening. This episode offers practical tips on cultivating your own food oasis at home, turning ornamental gardens into edible landscapes that boost both sustainability and self-sufficiency. Finally, we explore the ethical dimensions of food production, from the rise of non-GMO farming to the humane treatment of animals. Joel shares his unconventional yet sustainable farming practices, emphasizing stewardship over ownership and the role of faith in his life. In a conversation that moves from local to global, we touch on the role of consumer choice in supporting farmers and fostering a healthier ecosystem. Join us for insights that span from the farm to the table, with an emphasis on collaboration and growth in the food industry. ------------------------------------------------------------- Chapter Timestamps (00:16) - The Future of Food Supply (10:24) - The Benefits of Direct Food Sourcing (18:36) - Direct Food Sourcing and Self-Sufficiency (25:23) - Respecting Animals in Food Production (40:13) - Culinary Philosophy and Sustainable Farming (51:52) - Networking in the Food Industry ----------------------------------------------   Chapter 1 The Future of Food Supply 00:16 This chapter features a compelling discussion with Joel Salatin, the founder of Polyface Farms, about the current state and future of the food supply and economy. We explore potential economic outcomes for the U.S. in the next five years, considering possibilities such as recession, depression, or hyperinflation, while acknowledging the unpredictability of such events. Salatin provides insights into the consequences of deficit spending and potential governmental actions like price controls, which could disrupt industries like food production. Using an analogy of a wasp nest, he illustrates the potential instability and reactionary measures that may arise from economic dysfunction, offering a thought-provoking perspective on the challenges and resilience needed in uncertain times.   Chapter 2 The Benefits of Direct Food Sourcing 10:24 This chapter focuses on the importance of reducing the consumption of ultra-processed foods and establishing a direct connection to your food sources. We emphasize the significance of opting for local farmer's markets, community-supported agriculture, and even direct shipments from farms like Polyface Farms, which offers nationwide delivery. The conversation highlights the benefits of decentralizing food systems to enhance resilience against disruptions, like those seen in 2020. We also explore how individuals with backyard spaces can start growing their own food by planting what they enjoy eating, considering both perennials like berries and orchard trees, and annuals like vegetables. The chapter suggests utilizing raised beds for child-friendly gardening and promoting edible landscaping to replace ornamental plants with those that provide food, thereby maximizing the utility of garden spaces.   Chapter 3 Direct Food Sourcing and Self-Sufficiency 18:36 This chapter takes us on a journey through the historical and contemporary implications of food security, using the backdrop of Anne Frank's story to illustrate the resilience of rural communities during crises. We explore how the ability to source food directly from the countryside provided a lifeline during the Nazi occupation of Amsterdam and consider parallels to modern urban vulnerabilities. The conversation shifts to discussing the significance of maintaining a well-stocked pantry and staying healthy to mitigate the impact of societal disruptions. Attention is given to the prevalence of GMOs and additives in modern diets, encouraging listeners to seek out non-GMO foods and support local farmers. By becoming patrons of clean, sustainable agriculture, individuals can play a crucial role in enabling farmers to thrive and reduce reliance on supermarket chains.   Chapter 4 Respecting Animals in Food Production 25:23 This chapter examines the growing trend of non-GMO farming and the impact of consumer choices on the food system, emphasizing the importance of supporting non-GMO products to promote healthier ecosystems and sustainable practices. We discuss the potential health implications of additives in industrial food products, such as antifreeze agents in ice cream, and how discerning consumers can identify more natural alternatives. Additionally, we explore the ethical considerations surrounding animal farming, highlighting the differences between industrial and small-scale operations. The conversation touches on the respect and care smaller farms tend to have for their animals, which may contribute to higher quality meat that cooks faster and retains better texture due to reduced stress and adrenaline levels in the animals. This discussion underscores the interconnectedness of food production, consumer choice, and environmental and ethical considerations.   Chapter 5 Culinary Philosophy and Sustainable Farming 40:13 This chapter explores the journey and philosophy of Joel, a self-proclaimed "lunatic farmer," who has embraced unconventional farming practices that prioritize ecological sustainability over traditional methods. Joel shares how he has been marginalized by the conventional agricultural community, drawing parallels to political figures like RFK Jr., and how he has chosen to embrace his outsider status with humor and resilience. We delve into Joel's holistic view of farming, where he emphasizes stewardship over ownership, viewing land and livestock as God's creations that require responsible management. His approach has allowed him to remain unaffected by global events like the fertilizer crisis following Russia's invasion of Ukraine. Joel also touches on the importance of faith and family, describing himself as a Christian libertarian environmentalist capitalist, and underscores the need for cultural appreciation and collaboration. This narrative concludes with a reflection on the positive atmosphere of a Ron Paul conference, contrasting it with more divisive gatherings.   Chapter 6 Networking in the Food Industry 51:52 This chapter focuses on a conversation where I express my gratitude for a guest's participation and apologize for exceeding time limits. I offer my public relations expertise and access to a broad range of press contacts, particularly in the farm and libertarian freedom sectors. The guest, who frequently participates in various podcasts covering topics from business to food, expresses interest in the contacts I can provide. I conclude by reaffirming the positive experience of the exchange and extending my support through sharing valuable media connections, thus aiming to enhance future opportunities for both of us.   Joel Salatin, Polyface Farms, Food Supply, Economy, United States, Recession, Hyperinflation, Wasp Nest Analogy, Economic Scenarios, Deficit Spending, Government Interventions, Direct Food Sourcing, Ultra-Processed Foods, Local Farmers, Farmer's Markets, Community-Supported Agriculture, Backyard Gardening, Edible Landscapes, Sustainability, Self-Sufficiency, Ethical Dimensions, Non-GMO Farming, Humane Treatment, Sustainable Farming Practices, Stewardship, Faith, Consumer Choice, Food Production, Resilience, Collaboration, Networking, Public Relations, Press Contacts, Positive Experience
