Project

Introsect (Introsect)

This project will initiate the introduction of insect farming as an agricultural activity in the primary sector, by combining the increasing demand for insect biomass with the search for farmers for new agricultural activities. The project will provide the primary sector with sufficient know-how to implement insect farming in a sustainable way.


Specifically, we work around 3 goals:


1 mapping the potential of insect farming on interested farms;


2 informing the sector about insect farming and,


3 the effective implementation of insect farming among farmers.
