Fly species - 'savior' is useful to handle leftover foods

Scientists "spur" flies to increase the number of insects that eat discarded food as well as food processing waste, and turn these organic waste into fertilizer for the land.

The mating habits of flies may contain answers to the problem of solving discarded food and waste from food processing.

This is a new research result published by the Commonwealth Scientific and Industrial Research Organization (CSIRO) with the start-up company Goterra, based in Canberra (Australia).

Thanks to "spawning" flies, we can increase the number of insects that can eat discarded food as well as food waste.

Researchers have found a formula that perfectly combines light, moisture and menu elements to stimulate black flies, the most common flies, mating.

Thanks to the " fly " promotion , Gotterra can increase the number of insects that can eat discarded food as well as food processing waste, and turn these organic waste into fertilizer. give the land more fertility.

Besides the goal of solving food processing waste, scientists of CSIRO and Goterra also collaborated with the University of Adelaide to study insects that can provide the most nutrients for humans.

According to the team, insects are an abundant source of protein without losing as much area and care water as traditional pets.

In this August, CSIRO will hold an international conference on edible insects and embark on a future roadmap to find opportunities for insect farming in Australia.

CSRIO believes that unique solutions are essential when humanity faces challenges of sustainable development and food security.

Although CSIRO believes that developing a new industry can face many difficulties, CSIRO believes that with professionalism in agricultural development, insects, nutrition, economics and environmental forecasting, combined with Government organizations and universities, CSIRO has a clear path to turn great scientific knowledge into practical solutions.
