France: Ynsect To Establish World's Largest Insect Farm

After raising an investment of $224 million, French insect-farming startup 'Ynsect' has announced that it will build its second and world's largest insect farm. With an aim to tackle food burden on limited land resources, the mealworm farming will provide proteins for livestock, pet food and fertilizers. The 40-metre-tall carbon-negative vertical farm spread over 40,000 square metres, is set to become operational in 2022 in northern France's Amiens.
