The clear answer is No. There will be huge requirement of the Food Technologists in the next few years. The below points will explain you how there will not be any saturation in this field and the opportunities will only grow:
With time, people are becoming more and more health conscious. Therefore they are paying a lot of attention to the various aspects of the food items that they are consuming. The health and fitness factor has become so crucial in this world and therefore people are willing to spend their money only on those items which are prepared with extreme care by the professionals. That puts a lot of pressure on the producers who have to ensure the quality of the food items so that the consumers can get satisfied. Thus all the food production companies will be hiring more food technologists to ensure that quality.
The purchasing power of the people specially in our country has increased considerably in the last few years and expected to grow in the similar way. Therefore with more money people are more likely to go for those food items which are good for health in spite of their higher costs. Thus that increases the demands of food technology professionals who would take care of the health value of the food production.
The research in the field of the food items, their production and processing is highly mandatory specially with the number of innovations that are coming every day, it is only adding to the competition. Every food production company wants to create new food items so that the customers can relish them and stay loyal to that company. The innovation can only come in this field when the food technologists do great work in their research and provide their valuable contribution. Therefore they need to constantly look for new ways of production and figuring out the best possible options.
Thus the need of the food technologists will only be rising with time and there will be huge demand of this profession in the coming times.
