Organic Feeds by Rose Oduro
Low-cost, high-protein fish and poultry feed base made from black soldier fly larvae.
In a few words
Organic Feeds specializes in producing low-cost, high-protein feed base made from insects as an affordable yet equally nutritious alternative to fish-meal used in typical protein base poultry/fish feeds. We grow, harvest, and process black soldier fly (BSF) larvae into protein cakes, targeting small-scale seafood and poultry farmers. By implementing the principles of the circular economy, we recycle food waste from restaurants, breweries, and market centers into organic material for BSF larvae production.The BSF larvae are then harvested and sold to feed millers as a low-cost, sustainable, high quality protein alternative to environmentally unsustainable fishmeal. BSF excrement is also packaged into briquettes, as a sustainable alternative to woodfuel and is also packaged as organic fertilizer for small-scale horticulturists and farming collectives.
