Cellular Agriculture
Cellular agriculture: is the production of agriculture products from cell cultures in which a combination of biotechnology, tissue engineering, molecular biology, and synthetic biology is used to create new methods of producing proteins, fats, and tissues. Cellular Agriculture is the creation of animal products such as meat, milk, and eggs, produced in cell culture instead of raising and slaughtering farmed livestock.
