We will soon be able to grow beef in-vitro without killing any animals and also without the inefficiency of wasting most of the food on animal metabolism. Meeting the Needs of the Cell-Based Meat Industry No animals were harmed in the creation of the meatball in the article.
Nice, but I won't hold my breath until such products hit the shops.
As long as people continue to look for and consume conventional meats, there's going to continue to be an economical incentive for the established industry, and where there's a massive economical interest at stake large industry knows how to take action to protect itself.
Meat substitutes are already available at the shops.
Are they price-competitive? Not really.
Are people flocking for them? Not at all.

How do we maintain the land to grow crops without animal manure?

More chemicals? My composter yields hardly enough.

And let us not forget the animals killed in harvesting crops.

We didn't need to grow so much crop (and clear so much land) in the first place, if we didn't have to provide fodder for all that meat.
