The Shift towards Plant based Alternatives

Plant based and food technology alternatives are going to be the future alternative for animal based food. They are playing a major role in reducing water use, land use, feed use, and greenhouse gas emissions, thus safeguarding the environment. Startups are making a huge contribution in this field. Acknowledging their importance, we have focused on them in this special issue. The cover story of this issue features Mountain Tribe, which has been on a revolutionary path since its inception in 2019 to feed the masses in a better way and guide them towards a plant-based lifestyle. By developing functional plant-based alternatives, the company promotes awareness, improves animal care, and protects environmental resources. It has been offering a unique range of functional beverage, Tribe Kombucha, which is a perfect blend with health-promoting combinations of wild harvested and naturally farmed herbs with organic green tea.

Also featuring in this issue is Farm Organic, which offers a wide range of home grown organic spices (whole and powder), ayurvedic herbs, pulses, cereals, flours, rice, cold pressed edible oils, and sweeteners. The company manages its produce from the farm level to dispatch, keeping its product prices competitive.

Pea Protein Isolates contain 80 percent protein content, the highest among all alternative plant-based proteins.
