Adisseo and Entobel have agreed to initiate an R&D collaboration to better understand and enhance insect rearing performance and the nutritional requirement of insects (BSF, Black Soldier Fly). Adisseo and Entobel have decided to enter into a collaboration to join their respective expertise and work on different axis. By evaluating the interest and adaptation of the existing solutions; the companies aim to improve production of insect’s meal, focused on the performance of the insects and the quality of this protein meal, prioritizing the way to control the ingredients used to feed insects, and their complementarities with the most important feed additives, like methionine and enzymes. Currently, the higher requirement of sustainable proteins sources for feed and food, in a finite world boundary; insects are a promising nutritional alternative since they are an excellent bio-converter of waste and co-products inedible for human or livestock. The success of insect production and its adoption by customers will be depending on its competitivity, volume availability and its quality over time. For that, there is a need for transformation in the rearing process based on optimal insect’s growth performance and producing a meal and oil with good nutritional value, whatever the type and quality of the raw material needed to feed insects. Normally as a natural bio-converter, insects can use all type of substrate to grow, with different FCR and mortality. This variability of substrates will require specific knowledge and a different combination of additives. Adisseo, Entobel join forces on alternative insect protein development
