@EstherNgumbi @PIE_Entsoc @EntsocAmerica I’d really like to see more on insects as up-cyclers and feed.

Today I ran some more calibration tests for my leaf texture study. Who knew a graduate program in entomology would involve searching for the perfect pair of scissors.

If the fertilizer market is not stabilized, next year the world may run out of food.

We need to get them to farmers at a reasonable cost & on to fields as soon as possible.
