Introduce the pioneering work of a molecular farming startup that has harnessed the power of genetic engineering to cultivate egg proteins in potatoes
Explain how the startup has successfully modified potato plants to produce specific egg proteins traditionally derived from hens
Emphasize how cultivating egg proteins in potatoes offers a more resource
Discuss the increasing consumer demand for plant-based protein options and the potential impact of this innovation on the plant-based food market
such as their potential for allergen reduction and improved sustainability compared to traditional egg production
Explore how this innovation could contribute to meeting the growing demand for protein
Address the challenges and considerations associated with scaling up potato-cultivated egg protein production
