India Single Cell Protein Products Market Insights
India’s Single Cell Protein (SCP) Products Market is gaining momentum due to the country’s increasing protein deficiency concerns, population growth, and emphasis on food and nutritional security. With rising demand for sustainable and cost-effective protein sources in both human food and animal feed, SCP offers a promising solution. Government-led initiatives promoting biotechnology and waste-to-value solutions are encouraging innovation in microbial fermentation, particularly using agricultural residues and agro-industrial byproducts. The expanding aquaculture and poultry sectors, which require high-protein feed inputs, are acting as key drivers of SCP demand in India.
However, challenges persist in terms of public awareness, acceptance of microbial-based foods, and the need for regulatory clarity around SCP products, especially for human consumption. Despite these hurdles, India holds significant opportunities due to its strong base in fermentation technology, skilled workforce, and abundance of biomass resources. The emerging trend of plant-based and functional foods, coupled with growing venture capital interest in food tech, is laying the groundwork for rapid SCP commercialization, particularly in urban markets where sustainability and nutrition are becoming top priorities.
