Ento Agro produces protein-rich animal feed based on the larvae of the black soldier fly for chickens, poultry and small livestock

Ento Agro - "All is grace" in Bassama - is a company that stems from two self-employment income-generating initiatives. The first initiative involved raising backyard poultry, while the second continued the same activity but on a more suitable domain where the agro-ecological farm Bassama was established. There, they raise a larger number of poultry and rabbits, and cultivate cereals to feed the animals, thereby reducing expenses related to food. Franck N'PO Takpara, the farm's founder, introduced the idea of producing insect larvae flour from black soldier fly larvae and high-quality fertilizer from the excrement and leftover food of the larvae.

Thanks to the regular waste collection, the project will contribute to the sanitation and cleanliness of the city. A team of permanent and temporary workers is dedicated to clearing the city of biodegradable waste to feed the BSF larvae in response to the ever-growing demand. The uniqueness of the project lies in the transformation of waste into animal feed and the enhancement of soil fertility. It provides a solution to the lack of protein-rich feed for animals. The project will improve the income of various stakeholders in the livestock sector by expanding production opportunities.
