GrubTerra Innovates Sustainable Livestock Feed with Upcycled Food Scraps

Chester, New Jersey, United States, 10th May 2024 – GrubTerra, a leader in sustainable agriculture, is revolutionizing the way we think about livestock feed and waste management. Utilizing an innovative process that transforms food scraps into nutrient-rich feed through black soldier fly larvae, GrubTerra is committed to significantly reducing landfill waste while providing high-quality feed solutions for a variety of animals.

Transforming Waste into Resource
At the heart of GrubTerra’s operations is the black soldier fly larvae, known for their ability to quickly convert organic waste into a protein-rich feed alternative. This process is highly efficient: for every pound of dried larvae produced, approximately 20 pounds of food waste are diverted from landfills. This not only surpasses the nutritional value of traditional feeds with higher calcium content but also supports healthier livestock with benefits such as stronger eggshells and enhanced feather growth.

Global Impact with Local Focus
GrubTerra responsibly sources its larvae from farms in the United States, Canada, Indonesia, and Costa Rica, emphasizing support for local economies and small-scale agriculture. This global network enables the efficient upcycling of local food waste, reducing the volume of organic waste in landfills, minimizing methane emissions, and fostering a more sustainable ecosystem worldwide.

Reducing Methane Emissions
Food waste in landfills decomposes anaerobically, producing methane, a potent greenhouse gas that contributes significantly to global warming. By diverting 20 pounds of food waste for each pound of larvae produced, GrubTerra plays a crucial role in cutting methane emissions, thus combating climate change and promoting environmental sustainability.
