Better Insect Solutions

At BIS, we believe in the power of #partnerships, and #collaboration with academia to drive #innovation and create impactful #solutions. End of February, our Head of Business Development Lars-Henrik Lau Heckmann gave a presentation on industry perspective at a workshop with Danish peers organized by the DFF FTP2 project “Optimisation of insect production for animal feed through breeding” - led by Department of Chemistry and Bioscience, Aalborg University, Denmark, Center for Quantitative Genetics and Genomics - Aarhus University and Biology - Aarhus University.   Lars emphasized the importance of bridging the gap between R&D and commercial #insectfarming. By working closely with academic institutions and organizations like IPIFF (International Platform of Insects for Food and Feed), North American Coalition for Insect Agriculture and CEIF (Center for Environmental Sustainability through Insect Farming), we aim to integrate new knowledge with industry objectives, accelerating the international insect sector.   #BetterInsectSolutions #Poweredby Big Dutchman AG, Inno+, XIO – Intelligent Farming and SKOV A/S

What is the potential of insects as feed?   Insects as feed presents a promising and sustainable alternative for livestock and pet nutrition. Through our #partnership with FarmInsect, we support a decentralized approach to #insectfarming that enables local utilization of by-products promoting #circulareconomy. The produced larvae are processed into pet food or animal feed which offer numerous benefits, including high nutritional value - produced in a resource efficient approach.   At BIS we are proud to be a part of a transition that enables #sustainablegrowth working with animal farming 2.0 📈   Want to know more?

🪰 In Oberbergkirchen, Germany, FarmInsect have a breeding hub producing young #BlackSoldierFlyLarvae that are distributed to (at present) 7 different locations in Bavaria and Lower Saxony. Here farmers grow the very same insect larvae into sustainable #animalfeed or #petfood. This #circular production process is managed by FarmInsect in collaboration with BIS ­- a process that is not only #costefficient but also supports #sustainability. The alignment of FarmInsect and BIS adds a new revenue stream for farmers and promotes decentralized #insectfarming across multiple locations.   ”Insect farming adds value to farms by utilizing organic residues that would otherwise be wasted.” - Thomas Kuehn, CEO and founder of FarmInsect.   Read more on how this #partnership is fostering growth and influencing the future of sustainable farming in the feature: https://lnkd.in/gKdRZbA4   #BetterInsectSolutions #poweredby Big Dutchman AG, Inno+, XIO – Intelligent Farming and SKOV A/S
