Insects are a bountiful protein source that are positioned as a healthy and eco-friendly alternative to animal products that will likely increase in popularity in the coming years, which is being supported by products like the 'Re_' insect farming pod.
The modular insect farming kit works with a series of trays that can be positioned anywhere in the home and will go to work providing a dedicated section to raise insects for consumption. The system can provide between 100 and 300 grams of mealworms per harvest which are each more than 54% protein in order to accommodate individuals, couples or families alike.
The 'Re_' insect farming pod is inexpensively priced and is positioned as being a staggering 22,000-times more water-efficient than cattle raising.
