Book excerpt: Spirulina (Arthrospira platensis) is a filamentous, tiny Cyanobacterium that gets its name from its filaments' spiral or helical structure. Spirulina is considered a superfood because of its nutritious value, which will be good to outwit malnutrition and other health-related issues. With a protein level of 63 percent dry matter, the microalga spirulina is a viable food ingredient for expanding the repertory of protein sources available for human consumption. According to studies, unique food products that are produced with the consumer in mind are the most successful. Novel product concepts using spirulina extrudates were developed based on sensory data in order to generate potentially viable consumer-oriented products since extrusion has been proved to be suitable for texturizing protein using spirulina. At the same time, it is an ideal business for farmers and young entrepreneurs. The current book is dedicated to enthusiastic entrepreneurs who want to do entrepreneurship but don't have proper guidance regarding the Spirulina Farming, Production of Value Added Products, and most importantly, their marketing. This book gives an idea about the storage and training program availability in India also.
