Colombia is gradually entering the SCP space, driven by rising demand for protein sources, efforts to strengthen food security, and the expansion of the country’s livestock and aquaculture industries. Colombia’s diverse agricultural sector produces significant volumes of organic waste that can be repurposed for SCP production. The government’s initiatives to modernize agriculture and support bio-based industries are fostering an environment conducive to SCP development. Local universities and innovation centers are beginning to explore microbial protein production from sugarcane residues, coffee waste, and other biomass.
However, Colombia still faces barriers such as limited industrial capacity for large-scale fermentation and a lack of awareness among stakeholders. Even so, there is growing interest in SCP as a sustainable and cost-effective feed alternative, especially for domestic poultry and fish farming. The focus on rural development and environmental sustainability, along with increasing foreign investment in agri-tech, is likely to accelerate SCP adoption in the coming years, positioning Colombia as an emerging market with long-term growth potential.
