Insect-based animal feed
Print date: 14 April 2024 10:26
Description of the innovative solution
This innovation includes novel animal feed - For insect farming, farms can be created to grow insects from food loss and waste that could be used to feed animals particularly poultry and fish. This would thereby also address the issue of food waste, by using such waste for large scale insect farming. To facilitate access to innovative feeds and livestock supply chains, profitable networks for farmers can be developed to implement more sustainable practices at scale that help farmers and pastoralists improve the quality and quantity of their products and connect them to reliable markets.
