Canada's Minister of Agriculture and Agri-Food, the Honourable Marie-Claude Bibeau, announced up to $6 million to help build a new fully operational black soldier fly facility in Drummondville, Quebec that will increase the production of sustainable, insect-based products to feed animals. The black soldier flies feed on organic waste, resulting in a high-quality, protein-rich product to feed animals.
By taking action with investments in production facilities, the Government of Canada is helping players along the food supply chain to commercialize and adopt new ways to eliminate, reduce, or repurpose food waste. Ultimately, this investment will reduce food waste, use of landfills, and greenhouse gas emissions through the diversion of organic waste.
