There will be food made from wood

Trees provide oxygen to humans, but not only that, they also provide us with food.

Special technology to produce cellulosic food starches
the wood.For every 200 kg of cellulose, 20 kg of starch can be obtained, according to Science.

This amount of starch ensures one of the 3 nutritional components (fat, protein and carbohydrate) needed for one person in 80 days. Scientists propose to take advantage of the waste from the wood processing industry to turn into 'fuel for the body' with the investment cost of equipment and technology only about 1 million USD.

However, scientists have planned in the near future to improve technology and reduce costs even more, so just spending $ 0.5 is enough to guarantee the amount of daily starch for a people.

Thus, by 2050, cheap food can supply 30% of the population on Earth. The method proposed by American scientists can completely replace the current method used to produce biofuels from materials such as sugarcane and corn.
