Excited to attend the World Ag-Tech Innovation Summit (March 11-12) and the World Food-Tech Innovation Summit (March 13-14)! Looking forward to connecting with fellow leaders in food and agriculture to discuss: 🐓 Insect protein applications in agriculture 💲 Waste valorization and monetization ♻️ Building a more circular food system If you're attending, let’s connect!
Farm raised salmon have higher yield, better taste, and better texture when fed a diet containing black soldier fly larvae!
New black soldier fly protein meal results are in! We’re excited to share that we’ve new results on how this innovative feed ingredient can improve fish yield, fillet quality, and taste, all while contributing to sustainable aquaculture practices. 🟢 Next Week at the North Atlantic Seafood Forum 2025, we'll be sharing the recent insights! - Join the presentation by Michel van Spankeren from Protix and meet us there! 📅 Tuesday, 4 March 📍 Location: Bergen, Norway Aller Aqua in collaboration with NMBU - Norwegian University of Life Sciences, Protix and Austevoll Melaks.

BSF article from the #Aquaculture field: "Do Fish Really Love Black Soldier Fly Larvae?" "BSFL are not just a nutritious food source but also a natural delicacy for ornamental fish. They provide numerous health benefits, including improved color, digestion, and environmental sustainability. If you’re looking to enhance your fish’s diet, BSFL is definitely worth considering." Want to learn about the best practices of Black Soldier Fly farming, get access to FREE BSF farming tools such as a BSF business case calculator, an insect farm management tool, learning center and knowledge base with both short training courses as well as longer webinar recordings, and more?

🍅 Elevating Tomato Cultivation with Black Soldier Fly Frass 🍅 At AgriKemet , we’re harnessing the power of Black Soldier Fly (BSF) frass to revolutionize tomato farming. The results are impressive: 1. Nutrient-Rich Fertilizer: Packed with essential nutrients like nitrogen, phosphorus, and potassium, BSF frass gives tomatoes the boost they need to thrive. 2. Resilient Plants: Tomatoes treated with BSF frass develop stronger roots and sturdier stems, making them more resistant to pests and environmental stress. 3. Improved Soil Health: The organic matter in BSF frass enhances soil structure, water retention, and microbial activity, creating the perfect environment for tomato growth. 4. Increased Yields: With better nutrition and stronger plants, we’re seeing higher yields and better-quality tomatoes in our trials. 5. Sustainable Farming: By reducing reliance on synthetic fertilizers, BSF frass supports our mission of promoting sustainability and healthier soils. We’re excited about how BSF frass can help farmers grow more productive, resilient tomatoes while embracing sustainable practices. #TomatoGrowth #SustainableAgriculture #BlackSoldierFly #SoilHealth #AgricultureInnovation #OrganicFertilizer #AgriKemet

BSF in the news: "A ‘silver bullet’ for shrimp disease? Indian startup claims novel feed breakthrough" "UltraNutri, backed by two US-based professors and leading Indian cell therapy companies, claims to have developed a unique way to breed black soldier flies. Reared on agricultural byproducts, the insects – under the right conditions – develop a natural immunity that can be transferred to shrimp through the feed chain."

An amazing conclusion to an awesome program! I had a great 5 weeks building my company ENTEIN as a part of the Water, Energy and Technology (WET) Center's Valley Ventures 8th cohort. Every week we had lessons on marketing, sales, grant opportunities, venture capital options, and pitch practice. We were also taken to a weeks worth of farming operations at colleges and universities across the central valley to see first hand how the central valley California is leading the way with the future of farming innovation and practices. Thank you Jose Cobos, Samuel Fairbanks, and Eric Hadden for putting together such an informative program!
We were incredibly excited to host our Valley Ventures Capstone Pitch Competition at the Fresno State Winery earlier this month. This event marked the conclusion of our intensive, month-long curriculum, which focused on sales and marketing training, grant writing, investor relations, pilot site demonstrations, and technical mentorship. Congratulations to Penny Lane Case from Nexstera Tech for presenting the winning pitch of the evening! Penny will have the opportunity to present at the Plug & Play Silicon Valley Summit in June. View a recap of the pitch competition here - https://lnkd.in/g-qEYrMv A special thanks to all the founders, judges, and community members who made our pitch competition a success. We cannot wait to see what the future holds for these visionary companies!
We are honored to have been accepted into Fresno State Water, Energy and Technology (WET) Center's Vally Ventures program as a member of the 8th cohort! We look forward to starting the program this week, as we will be able to participate in excellent business workshops, tour farming and technology powerhouses throughout California's central valley, and work to build our partnerships.
The next member of our 8th Valley Ventures cohort is ENTEIN. Visit their page to learn more about their alternative protein manufacturing and founder, William Burns!
