Environmental protection and pet health care

Taking care of your pet’s health and longevity starts with a proper and balanced diet. The modern feed market offers variety and a wide choice.

Surely many of you have already heard about insect feed, let’s look at the production not only in terms of proper feeding, but also care for nature.

Nowadays, protecting the environment is not only a “good form”, but also a vital necessity. After all, as humanity affects the environment, so nature has an impact on us. Moreover, our requests and needs are growing, which means that the consumption of resources is also increasing. And the planet can no longer cope with the restoration of what was spent.

The statistics are relentless: we are currently “living on credit”, consuming 50% more than the Earth can replenish. We don’t have another planet.

Does this mean that we need to abandon electricity, mobile phones, cars and planes overnight? Even if we wanted to, we can’t. However, we can minimize the damage we cause to nature. And inventive minds are working on it all the time.

Consider the example of animal feed production.

Worldwide, making animal feed is as costly to nature as driving 14 cars on the road. And 000 kg of beef protein “costs” 000 liters of water. How can the situation be changed? One solution is to obtain protein from insects.

Dozens of eco-farms are opening and operating in Europe, the USA and Canada, which produce not only animal feed, but also products for people (snacks, snacks, energy bars, pasta and even alcoholic cocktails) from insects.

Especially popular as a source of protein is the black soldier fly, a fly that feeds on beet pulp. And to get 1 kg of black soldier fly, you need only 2 kg of beet pulp. And to get 1 kg of protein from these flies, you only need 8 liters of water. Resource savings are evident.

In addition, much less carbon dioxide and methane are emitted. And also, there is no need to cut down the next forest areas for pastures, which means that wild animals continue to exist safely in the forests.

At the same time, the black soldier fly is not susceptible to diseases that large and small cattle, pigs and poultry can suffer from. So it’s also safer than traditional types of protein source.

It is the black lion fly that is the only source of protein in the new generation of dry food.

Such feeds have a number of advantages:

1. The composition does not contain cereals, pork, lamb, beef and chicken, which means that the risk of developing allergic reactions is reduced. 2. The food is suitable for adult dogs of all breeds, as well as dogs with sensitive digestion. 3. Herbs, fruits and vegetables that are included in the feed will help support the pet’s immunity.
