Abstract

Agriculture is essential for the well-being of the society consuming 70 percent of the global water resources and occupies about 40 percent of the total land surface. With increasing world population there is a growing demand for food production worldwide, arising the need for relatively low-cost foods, which have reduced influence on the environment. Proteins form the essential and integral part of our food. Many plant-based by-products have captured the attention of researchers and industries. Here, the review gives some insight into the various sources available, which can be exploited for extraction of proteins for human consumption. It will cover some of the studies related to utilization of oil seed by-products, by-products generated from rice milling and legume industry that are rich sources of proteins.
