We are on a mission to provide better nutrition for Nigerians and their livestock
Almost 100 million Nigerians live in poverty
820,000kg of organic waste is generated in Ibadan daily
75% of Nigeria’s aquaculture feed supply is imported
Increasing cost of livestock products due to expensive feeds
And we have a solution.
- The Insects4Feed Cluster provides high quality feed and fertilizer for Nigerian livestock farmers using Black Soldier Fly Larvae.
- We are offering a solution to repurpose organic food matter generated in the city of Ibadan to produce Black Soldier Fly.
- We provide women and youths with income generation opportunities by training them on how to rear insects for feed.
- We are tackling food insecurity in Nigeria through improved access to protein.
IMPACT VISION
OUR SDGs FOCUS
Zero Hunger
The use of BSF as a readily available less expensive alternative feed means there will be an increase in animal production at a reduced cost. Hence cheaper yet quality animal protein products will be available for all.
Gender Equality
Insects farming which is not land intensive aims to encourage more women to be actively involved in agriculture and become entrepreneurs who contribute to sustainable value chains and food systems.
Decent Work & Economic Growth
The Insects4feed project provides an avenue for women and youths to access training and skills acquisition, this ensures job creation and sustainable economic growth.

Responsible Consumption & Production
A major challenge for farmers is the high prices for importing livestock feed. By rearing BSF which is a suitable alternative, we can reduce the dependence on imported feedstock significantly. This means less feedstocks would be imported to supplement demand

Climate Action
Abundance of organic waste is a challenge in Ibadan and Nigeria at large. By farming insects which feed on organic waste, we can reduce the amount significantly. Our Insect farming also helps cut down carbon emissions.
