Making meat sustainable over the long term

Cell-cultured Meat

<div>
 <p>Czech-based company, Bene Meat Technologies, has announced the creation of its first cultivated burger patty for people to consume. The firm asserts that the burger will have a similar price to high-quality beef.</p>
 <p>The production of the burger involves a traditional cell cultivation method, which begins with obtaining cell tissue or sourcing from a cell bank. The company formulates its media recipes and machinery internally, thereby dodging costly ingredients and intricate procedures. The burger purportedly consists of nearly 90% cultivated beef cells, with the remaining made up of spices and less significant ingredients.</p>
 <p>According to Bene Meat Technologies, its dedication to cost-efficient and scalable production has helped it match the price of premium beef. Currently, the company is building a larger facility estimated to produce roughly 200 tons of their product annually, with completion expected in 2025.</p>
 </div> <p><b>Analyst QuickTake:<br>
 </b> The price premium of cultivated meat products is a major consumer pain point deterring mass adoption. This has led companies to develop innovative cost-reduction methods such as FBS-free alternatives and novel production methods. In <a href="https:<br>
//sp-edge.com/updates/11598"> July 2022 </a> , SciFi Foods achieved an R&amp;D milestone that reportedly allowed the company to reduce the cost of growing beef cells by more than 1,000x and achieve price parity.</p>
