This initiative targets mature technologies or technologies in late-stage development that have a strong and demonstrable potential to address key challenges in the Canadian plant-protein sector.

Support will be allocated to facilitate the adaptation of these technologies for use in the plant-protein sector, promote their adoption by stakeholders, and facilitate their implementation.

The Sustainable Protein Production program supports the vision and mandate of the Protein Industries Canada (PIC) Supercluster by conducting collaborative, interdisciplinary research that advances scientific knowledge, facilitates technology development, and directly improves the competitiveness of the Canadian plant-protein sector.

Priority Areas

Priority will be given to projects with the greatest potential to deliver innovation and new approaches that can be rapidly implemented to address critical gap areas:

Improve the productivity and sustainability of protein-crop production practices
Increase the efficiency and cost-competitiveness of protein-crop processing and manufacturing
Enhance safety and security across the Canadian plant-protein value chain
Address disruptions and unique challenges created by the COVID-19 pandemic
Create new product opportunities and value-added revenue streams
Improve the safety, quality and traceability of products across the plant-protein value chain
Address risks arising from “black swan” events (e.g. global pandemic), such as disrupted supply chains, transportation barriers, labour shortages, reduce market access and demand
