Contract period: 01.01.2019

Purpose of research: Applied research
The most important protein sources of human nutrition include products of animal (meat, fish, eggs, milk) and vegetable origin (wheat, potato, rice, soy, lupine, pea, bean).
Increasing world population and growing demand in developing and emerging countries means that supplying high-quality, high-protein foods is increasingly becoming a global challenge. On the available agricultural land, the rising gaps in supply can not be closed by yield increases alone. This situation is exacerbated by overfishing of the oceans, climate change and water scarcity.
