?? Plantible, a startup producing duckweed protein, has closed a $30 million Series B round to scale up production at their Texas farm and deliver on commercial agreements with several large food companies → https://bit.ly/4hTeuxJ Duckweed, a free-floating aquatic plant that grows without pesticides and doubles in mass every 48 hours, has many advantages. It is considered a complete protein containing all essential amino acids, a protein digestibility (PDCAAS) score of 1.0 (equivalent to animal protein), and a neutral taste profile in finished products. Aquatic crops such as seaweed, microalgae, and duckweed have become an especially hot area for exploration as #alternativeprotein ingredients because they are highly sustainable to produce and rich in protein and nutrients. It's fantastic to see startups receiving this level of funding support to scale their operations to reach mainstream consumers!
