Apiculture and insects

Apiculture and insects

To support sustainable organic beekeeping, the prevention of diseases, the use of natural materials and additives, as well as closing the farm cycles, are the top priorities. At a time when bee colonies across the world are collapsing, bees and their keepers need support in combating challenges.

Additionally, as the sustainability of our protein sources is deliberated, alternative sources are being investigated. That is why tools related to the contemporary topic of insects as animal feed, as well as direct food for humans, are featured on this page.
