VEGETAL GROW DEVELOPMENT

LIGHTING FOR INSECTS

The farming and processing of insects into ingredients for animal feed is a topic that is increasingly being discussed. The valorization of food waste , which serves as a substrate for insect development, as well as the production of new proteins that can be assimilated by livestock, makes this method a virtuous cycle addressing global societal challenges.

VGD intervenes, through its expertise in lighting and its lighting system, to increase and homogeneize insect production.
