Income, consumer preferences, and the future of livestock-derived food demand

Research Project

Full description Determining demand for livestock derived foods under different scenarios including changing human population, incomes and consumer preferences. We used scenario-based modeling to show that average protein demand for red meat (beef, sheep, goats, and pork), poultry, dairy milk, and eggs across the globe would increase by 14% per person and 38% in total between the year 2020 and the year 2050 if trends in income and population continue along a mid-range trajectory.
