[The Cultured Meat Tournament](https://www.metaculus.com/tournament/cultured-meat-tournament/), developed with returning partner [Rethink Priorities](https://rethinkpriorities.org/), is open. Your forecasts will contribute to more accurate cultured meat production timelines, helping to inform the decision-making of philanthropic funders, biotech researchers, and farmed animal advocates working in this important space at the intersection of technology innovation and food science. 

Senior Researcher at Rethink Priorities Neil Dullaghan has offered his own forecasts in a new report that summarizes the state of cultured meat production while laying out two competing models for the industry's potential growth. You can read it [here](https://www.metaculus.com/notebooks/10363/how-much-cultured-meat-will-there-be-by-2050/). 

The tournament features three forecast question groups:

* **[How many metric tons of ≥20% cultured meat will be sold on average in the 5 years leading up to each year below?](https://www.metaculus.com/questions/10397/tons-20-cultured-meat-sold-by-2050/)**

* **[How many metric tons of ≥51% cultured meat costing <$10/kg will be sold on average in the 5 years leading up to each year below?](https://www.metaculus.com/questions/10396/tons-51-cultured-meat-10-kg-sold-by-2050/)**

* **[How many metric tons of ≥51% cultured meat will be sold on average in the 5 years leading up to each year below?](https://www.metaculus.com/questions/10395/tons-51-cultured-meat-sold-by-2050/)**
