A plant for the production of animal protein (protein meal) and lipid concentrate from black soldier fly larvae will be built in the Central Federal District, with a capacity of 3 thousand tons and 900 tons per year, respectively. This was reported to Izvestia by the press service of the Ministry of Agriculture. The enterprise will be created as part of the innovative project “Creation of high-tech large-scale production of animal protein from black soldier fly larvae,” aimed at the production of feed additives for the domestic feed industry. Scaling up this technology will make it possible to produce about 150 thousand tons of feed protein per year for the diet of farm animals, in particular valuable fish species. This will help increase the level of security in the domestic market, the ministry said. By 2030, the domestic industry for growing seafood products will require more than 610 thousand tons of feed.
