Pronutria offers a scalable solution to the rising economic, human, and environmental cost of food. Our Nutriculture™ technology is so efficient at producing pure nutrients, it could satisfy the global demand for protein ingredients in a land area smaller than New York City and meet the daily protein requirements for a billion people in a land area no bigger than Rhode Island.
The Pronutria process is radically more efficient than current agriculture and livestock cultivation, and produces pure nutrition up to 1,000 times more efficiently, with minimal environmental impact and maximal nutrition quality.
Livestock alone occupy 45 percent of the world's land surface area and contribute more greenhouse gas emissions than cars, planes, and all other forms of transportation combined. Even with the yield improvements offered by GMO crops, these 10,000-year-old technologies are simply too resource inefficient to meet the world's growing demand for nutritious food.
Fixing undernutrition and starvation
Pronutria is partnered with leading global players such as the Clinton Health Access Initiative and the Gates Foundation to transform undernutrition. Our Nutriculture production system will locally produce pure, nutritious proteins that are complimentary to local production on small farms, which yield foods such as grains and roots that are rich in carbohydrate but low in protein. These combinations will mean a well-rounded nutrition profile, which can be the difference between a healthy and productive life and sickness or death for millions struggling to feed themselves.
Today 925 million people are undernourished, and demand for food is expected to increase by 50 percent by 2030. The most common form of undernutrition is protein-energy malnutrition, which is the leading cause of childhood death in Southeast Asia and in Africa. Without adequate protein, children cannot grow to normal size, muscles cannot repair themselves, and minds cannot reach their full potential, leading to a lifetime of impairment in productivity even for those who survive.
