PROTEIN DEFINITION What it is protein?

Protein: One of the three nutrients used as energy sources (calories) by the body.Proteins are essential components of the muscle, skin, and bones. Proteins andcarbohydrates each provide 4 calories of energy per gram, whereas fats provide 9calories per gram. It is the basic material of life. Muscles, organs, bones, cartilage,skin, antibodies, some hormones, and all enzymes (the compounds that directchemical reactions in cells) are made of protein.

Proteins are constantly being broken down in our bodies. Most of the amino acidsare reused, but we must continually replace some of those that are lost. Thisprocess is known as protein turnover. Our need to keep this process going begins atconception and last throughout life. Without dietary protein, growth and all bodilyfunctions would not take place. Exist or are defined two “Types” of protein:"complete protein" and "incomplete protein" to describe the proteins provided byvarious foods. If a food supplies a sufficient amount of the nine essential aminoacids, it is called a complete protein. Virtually all proteins from animal foods arecomplete. Foods that lack or are short on one or more of the essential amino acids -such as some fruits, grains, and vegetables - are called incomplete proteins. Suchplant-derived foods can nonetheless be excellent sources of protein if eaten incombinations that supply all of the essential amino acids. For example, the aminoacids missing in a vegetable can be provided by eating a grain product, anothervegetable, or an animal-derived protein at the same meal.

Food Markets If There Was No BiofuelEven without scaled-up biofuel production, the world today is unable to feed its population. The FAO estimates that close to a billion people are unable to pay the price for all the food they need; they are chronically hungry. But this is primarily a question of distribution.There is enough food around to feed everyone adequately, but the poor cannot afford to buy their fair share. Population growth leads to increasing demand for food. Likewise, economic growth allows people to increase per capita food intake and to replace cheap staple foods such as grains, tubers, legumes, and seeds with meat. Increasing demand stimulates increases in production. Under such conditions, the FAO expects the supply of food to increase up to 2052. But determining how much the food will cost compared to today is not so easy.The land area now used to grow crops could probably increase by 30%. However, marginal costs will increase with the use of less productive lands and increasing losses of biodiversity. Those increasing marginal costs imply that one cannot simply extrapolate the declining food prices of the past. Traditionally production costs declined as labor productivity increased in agriculture. This explains the recent long historical period where food prices declined relative to wages.New agricultural technologies, new plant varieties, aquaculture, and education will help prolong this green revolution. Pulling in the opposite direction, though, higher energy prices will increase the costs of fertilizers, pesticides, plowing, irrigation, and transportation.Which of the above factors will dominate in the future is hard to predict. Potential climate change adds uncertainty, both because the weather influences yields and because mitigation policies could lead to higher energy prices and restrictions on emissions of methane and nitrous oxide from agricultural production.

Exactly how much feed is needed varies, depending on the quality and makeup of the feed, the health and age of the animal, the environment, and other factors.

WHY Lemna-Duckweed Protein it is a GREAT IDEA EVER?:

Bio Agrow Soluciones Integrales S.A. de C.V.:

A company dedicated to the design and creation of business models focused on the development of the Agricultural Industry by implementing projects with a proposed high social value. We also promote environmental care and our business model is based upon the use of an aquatic plant known as duckweed (Lemna - Duckweed) as a base raw material for:• Systems for Wastewater Treatment.• Aquaculture Farms.• Poultry and pig farms.• Manufacturing of protein powder for human consumption.• Production of Biopolymers (Plastic) from starch.• Production of biofuels.

The approach of Bio Agrow Soluciones Integrales SA de C.V. is to license the business model and implement its structure globally.

This would involve a scalable and highly profitable business with a flexible escalation process from 270 ha to 2,400 ha.

The products generated are focused on regions and markets in which increases in demand and the limited supply of food for both animal and human consumption are presented.

A system of, commercially-manufacturing production, ready to be part of the solution to the growing global demand, for the supply of food products with significantly higher added value for both social enrichment and food quality enrichment.


WHY Lemna-Duckweed Protein it is a GREAT IDEA EVER?:

Bio Agrow Soluciones Integrales SA de C.V. offers "a healthy and organic product to feed both animals and humans" via the use of a small aquatic plant known as Lemna-Duckweed (duckweed), Lemna-Duckweed is a small aquatic plant that when processed through our process (patent pending:- a known ethanol manufacturing process improved and optimized) for separating and/or removing the starch, leaving an organic and concentrated protein slurry, which could provide a simple solution to address the shortages of food, energy and water globally.

The agricultural and water systems will at this stage, with global challenges such as food and energy shortages, enhance the production and manufacture of inexpensive, healthy food, and the products will have a value expectation that is attractive to the local, national and international market. The exploitation of Duckweed-Lemna adopts a method of production more efficient, sustainable and adaptable to the effects of foods susceptible climate change.

Bio Agrow Soluciones Integrales SA de C.V. can provide the knowledge, experience and ability to produce an organic food source for animals and humans that will have a high impact to the problem of solving the food and environmental challenges that the world population is facing today.
