It a entirely new kind of small farm: insect farming.
Imagine converting any space - be it a warehouse or a shipping container - into an insect farming hub, all with climate optimization. This isn't science fiction; it's today's sustainable farming reality.
The groundbreaking feature of the Manna MIND Gen2, built by a Finnish AgriTech pioneer, lies in its adaptability. Whether you're in chilly Canada or tropical Indonesia, the tech ensures optimal farming conditions, making global sustainability a reachable dream.
What's even more impressive? It's energy efficient. The system's minimal power consumption means solar panels alone can sustain operations.
Manna's initiative focuses primarily on the Black Soldier Fly (BSF). This small creature plays a big role in upcycling organic waste. Through its lifecycle, the BSF transforms waste into nutritious animal feed and organic fertilizer.
The process isn't just eco-friendly; it's also profitable. With only around 6 hours of human input needed over a 10-day growth period, farmers can expect high returns.
The company's CEO, Ykä Marjanen, highlighted the technology's potential for inclusivity, stating the new Gen2 version’s versatility can reach even small-scale farmers in developing countries.
With the ability to run on various electricity inputs and optimized power consumption based on weather predictions, it's a solution crafted with a global vision in mind.
