Abstract
The stresses of a rapidly increasing population on the available food supply make it essential that the nutritional value of foodstuffs be maximized. In the more developed countries there has been an increase of about 6 percent in protein intake since before World War11, whereas in developing countries it is estimated to have declined by about the same percentage. Protein rich foods are especially sparse and costly and protein malnutrition is a major health problem in these areas of the world. There is little chance that the developing countries will be able to apply the scientific and technical practices of modern agriculture rapidly enough to solve their food problems.
