Food and Fodder Yeast

Food and Fodder Yeast - Yeast propagated essentially for food purposes is known as food yeast. Yeast produced chiefly to feed animals is called fodder yeast. The mass cultivation of yeast for use as food, more specifically as a food supplement, is to compensate for the dietary inadequacies of cheap food materials, especially in the regions of the world where human malnutrition is chronic

Secondly, there is great emphasis and interest ort lowering the BOD of the effluents from industrial plants. Thus several processes to manufacture yeast from industrial and agricultural wastes have been undertaken. This converts waste into products of value, and at the same time prevents environmental pollution.
