The World Farmers’ Organisation (WFO), which represents over 1.2 billion farmers worldwide, has taken a resolute stand against adopting lab-grown food as an alternative to the food resulting from the work of farmers.

The World Farmers’ Organisation is a member-based association that brings together national farmers’ organisations and agricultural cooperatives from around the world. In a recent position paper, the organisation underlines the significance of sustainable agriculture and raises concerns regarding the potential impact of lab-grown food not only on food safety and human health but on cultural heritage, the livelihoods of farming communities, and global food security.

The World Farmers’ Organisation states that the report makes clear that “there is no reliable evidence to compare cell-based food to farmer-produced one”, adding “there is still much to consider about its nutritional value and how it could affect human health in the long term”.
