Bugging the System: How Insect Farming creates a new future for Food — Welcome to the Beehive s01e07

What if the future of sustainable animal feed isn’t found in fields or factories—but in insects? The Insect Farming East Africa (IN-FEAST) Partnership officially launched in 2025, marking a bold step toward transforming East Africa’s food systems. Backed by the Netherlands Food Partnership (NFP) for the next three years, this initiative brings together IFIP (Association for Insect Farming and Its Products), New Generation Nutrition, and Fair & Sustainable to unlock the potential of insects as a game-changing alternative for animal feed. In this episode, we explore how IN-FEAST is tackling three critical challenges to scale the insect farming industry in Kenya and East Africa: Strengthening collaboration among farmers, businesses, and policymakers.Building skills and capacity to ensure high-quality, consistent insect production.Improving access to finance to help insect farming businesses thrive. From developing a learning library of best practices to mapping the investment landscape, the partnership is laying the groundwork for an inclusive, efficient, and sustainable insect farming sector. The goal? To close nutrient cycles, boost food security, and create economic opportunities—all while reducing reliance on conventional feed inputs. Join us in The Beehive as we dive into the world of insect farming and discover how tiny creatures are making a huge impact on East Africa’s food future. Ready to rethink the future of feed? Tune in—because sometimes, the smallest solutions create the biggest change. More information: https://www.nfpconnects.com https://www.nfpconnects.com/insights/... https://aifip.africa/
