An automated Black Soldier Fly farming technology enhancing insect protein production, creating efficient, scalable feed solutions for sustainable protein in aquaculture and animal agriculture.
77%
of the world's agricultural land is used for livestock feed
World population growth and the resulting surge in meat demand led to a proliferation of farms, particularly aquaculture and poultry. Conventional livestock feed sources - like fish meal and soybean - intensify the strain on 90% of wild fish populations and utilize a staggering 77% of global agricultural land for production.
A transformative solution is imperative to ensure sustainable protein production for a balanced future.
Introducing Kinsect's Black Soldier Fly larvae - whose protein content can range from 56% to 82% - into animal feed promotes environmental sustainability and balanced livestock nutrition. Compared with conventional production methods, this automated method works in batches, boosting efficiency in soldier fly egg production by maximizing the fly chamber capacity to achieve a higher density.
10X
fewer impact than plant protein
Upcycled high-protein insect meal serves as an innovative substitute for soy and fish meal. This revolutionary approach minimizes waste and requires less soil and water than conventional animal farming.
Thanks to patented optimized cages and oviposition devices for egg harvesting, and by harnessing insects' bioconversion capabilities, it's possible to insert circularity into the farming and livestock industry without productivity downsides.
Kinsect's automated system operates on a batch production model, maximizing fly density per cubic meter, improving yields, and heightening efficiency. Within a controlled environment, the uniquely designed cages move automatically, increasing egg production and facilitating daily automated and efficient collection.
This technology promotes clean, alternative protein sources for the agricultural and livestock value chain.
