Special Issue Information
The current COVID-19 pandemic has created an urgent need for alternative technology for livestock and forest encroachment issues for meat/protein sources. This Special Issue highlights the importance of in vitro meat which will be an alternative solution. The need of the hour is solving human health issues stemming from emerging infectious diseases, as well as forest encroachment for the sake of livestock expansion, animal welfare, and global demand for animal meat. Despite efforts linked to animal livestock production, the global burden is increased without satisfying the global meat demands. Thus, in vitro meat is a promising technological solution which helps in animal welfare, reduction in emerging infectious diseases, proper utilization of land and other available resources, and environmental benefits.
