The insect farming industry is experiencing unprecedented growth, driven by the demand for sustainable and nutritious protein sources. However, this rapid development presents a unique set of challenges that industry players must navigate. At Phileo, we understand that increasing productivity in complex and poor substrates while ensuring insect health, well-being, and product functionality, are crucial.
The productivity, sustainability, and regulatory compliance of insect farming, particularly with the Black Soldier Fly, rely on the ability to valorize feed streams by increasing their nutritional and digestibility composition.
At Phileo, we have decades of expertise in unlocking the power of microbial probiotics to support the livestock industry. Our carefully selected and characterized yeast, bacterial, and fungal strains can help insect farmers increase nutrient availability, enhance bioconversion, and improve feed efficiency.
Reliable egg laying and hatchability rates are critical components in Black Soldier Fly production. While significant progress has been made in this area, it remains one of the most crucial and costly steps to ensure consistent and efficient production.
The key to successful reproduction relies, among other factors, on providing the right balance of key nutrients to increase insect fitness, optimal oviposition timing, egg quality, and embryonic development rates.
At Phileo, we have developed specialized probiotics and postbiotics that can enhance oviposition and hatching rates, helping farmers to optimize their production processes and drive greater efficiency.
By valorizing complex substrates and optimizing insect performance, Phileo’s microbial solutions contribute to the sustainability and circularity of the insect farming industry. This helps producers meet the growing demand for sustainable protein sources while minimizing environmental impact.
