This study reported that optimum and economic conditions for baker’s yeast production using sugarcane molasses were 10% molasses culture medium containing 0.15% urea at pH=5.0 and the initial count of yeast inoculum as 103 cell/ ml. At optimized conditions, FJ1 showed biomass yield of 5.63g/L which further increases to 6.54g/L on supplementation with CSL. Therefore, CSL was found to increase the biomass yield by 16.16%.
