A Sustainable Solution to Mitigate Food Insecurity: Enhance A Village, Inc. and Their Project to Raise Black Soldier Fly Larvae

Alfonso Galarpe March 3,2023


We are proud to introduce Enhance A Village, Inc. and its project to raise Black Soldier Fly Larvae (BSFL) for farm sustainability and mitigating food insecurity. BSFLs are incredibly beneficial, as they can be used to feed chickens, fish, and other poultry. By using Black Soldier Fly Larvae, farms can cut costs and ensure efficient use of resources. 

The larvae of the Black Soldier Fly are an excellent source of protein, vitamins, fatty acids, and minerals. These essential nutrients can help chickens, fish, and poultry to grow and stay healthy. The larvae can be consumed directly by these animals or dried and used as a supplement to their regular diets. 

The project also focuses on raising Black Soldier Fly Larvae for fish. Dried larvae are an excellent source of protein and essential nutrients for fish. They can be used instead of live feed, providing a cost-effective alternative for fish farmers. 


Black Soldier Fly Larvae can also be used to produce compost. The larvae feed on waste materials, such as food scraps and animal manure, and convert them into nutrient-rich compost. This compost can then enrich the soil and improve crop yields. 


Enhance a Village strives to make the world a better place by helping to sustain farms and mitigate food insecurity. We are asking for volunteers and donations to help us continue this vital work. Your support is invaluable and will make a lasting impact on the lives of those in need.
