Increasing mushroom production and consumption, such as button mushrooms, oyster mushrooms, and others, will also fuel market expansion in the approaching years. Growing demand for plant-based foods such as tofu, soy, seitan, jackfruit, and others will also drive market expansion over the forecast period. One of the greatest impediments to the plant-based meat business is the high cost of the product. In comparison to animal meat products, plant-based meat products are pricey, which may lower market prices in India and china. Plant-based meat products may have greater levels of salt than animal meat, which may limit market expansion.
According to Coherent Market Insights, the Global Plant Based Meat Market was valued at US$ 5.06 Bn and is expected to reach US$ 20.76 Bn exhibiting a CAGR of 19.3% during the forecast period 2022-2030.
