Circular Economy Is The Future Of Agricultural Businesses

Sustainable Protein

Italy and Europe import around 30% of the consumpted feed. This extreme dependency on imported protein has necessary to be reduced as it makes our system vulnerable. It hence becomes crucial to shorten the food supply chain and dignify the agricultural bioproducts that are routinely generated. In order to achieve these goals, the BugsLife exploits a specific type of insect which has been naturally specializing for millions of years in the task of nutrient recovery, in a fast, reliable and efficient way: the Black Soldier Fly.
