What do alternative proteins mean for Australian fishing and aquaculture?

Understanding the risks and opportunities of alternative proteins.

The potential for alternative proteins to transform the food industry is immense, but what does this mean for us?

Alternative proteins—ranging from plant-based and lab-grown products to insect-derived solutions—offer sustainable options to meet the increasing demand for animal feed and food for human consumption whilst opening up new business avenues. However, integrating these innovations into the traditional fishing and aquaculture industries presents unique challenges and opportunities.

This FRDC project aims to navigate these complexities, seeking to equip the sectors with the knowledge to respond effectively and benefit from alternative proteins. By examining the risks and opportunities associated with this emerging market, we provide strategic insights and recommendations to help these industries innovate, adapt, and thrive in a rapidly evolving landscape.
