How to make insect farming sustainable and efficient

Addressing nutritional imbalances, improving cost competitiveness

When feed costs are a major driver of overall production expenses, producers must focus on efficient feed utilization to maintain cost-competitive operations. Many commonly used insect feed substrates are imbalanced, leading to either low feed utilization and poor growth performance or requiring expensive supplementation with high-quality feed components. 

NexAMINO® MK directly addresses the amino acid requirements of insect larvae, tackling the issue at its core. This innovative solution reduces feed costs, improves feed utilization, and optimizes growth performance — essential for sustainable and competitive farming operations.
