25 Feb 2019 --- French ag-tech innovator Ÿnsect, which specializes in turning farmed insects into ingredients for fish feed, pet food and plant fertilizers, has raised US$125 million in a Series C round of funding to build the “world’s biggest insect farm.” The company seeks to scale up production at its facility near Amiens, in northern France, which will be able to produce around 20,000 tons of protein per year. Ÿnsect also plans to develop the company’s international and North American markets to keep pace with the increasing demand for insect protein as part of a sustainable food system.
