Expansion of the Mealworm Production facility at Bobo Eco Farm

The newly expanded mealworm production facility has capacity of up to 10 metric tons of mealworm per month – thanks to the financial support from The Novo Nordisk Foundation.

We were also able to expand and improve mealworm production facilities in the schools.
