The world’s population is estimated to reach 9.1 billion in 2050.Themajor countries of China, Russia and India will show a steady increase in the standard of living and hence their demand for animal and dairy proteins will increase.

not be more pressing. The time to discover synergies and opportunities between the
private sector and policy-makers could not be more opportune. Understanding the

future of our planet earth.

“The rapidly growing world population and global economic developments have resulted in increasing demand for high-quality nutrition made from animal protein. This in turn places increasing pressure on the development of sound and sustainable production chains. Demand for, and social interest in, meat and meat production offers great opportunities for the creation of new, sustainable business concepts”. Mr. Peter Beckers, COO VION Food Netherlands, Germany and International.
