= Poultry Food + Frass -fertilizer
"..waste is converted into valuable resources for the agri-food industry: larvae can be used as feed for poultry or in aquaculture, frass can be applied as an organic fertilizer for various crops.
This eco-friendly approach reframes an urban wildlife conflict as an opportunity. It contributes to a sustainable circular economy where waste materials are reused, recycled or transformed into new resources.

Yesterday's presentation at #PintOfScience was very nice, but it reminded me again how little press most agricultural and food topics get (unless there's a trendy new sanitary issue).
So it just made me feel like boosting this old thread and my presentation at the Fediverse Solstice School again, in case anyone wants to read about sustainable agriculture and fertilization.

🧵2/ The #IranWar is hitting the global food supply hard - #Fertilizer costs and shortages will impact millions. Increased fuel costs for field equipment reduces profit margins, and diesel for truck transportation of food commodities to processing plants and retail outlets is driving up grocery prices. #RepublicansOwnThis chaos. It is a disaster of their making. #affordability #inflation #Food #farming #agriculture

Farmers are frustrated: An Exclusive Farm Bureau Poll - What with the #IranWar, rising #Fertilizer and #Diesel prices and #Tariffs the #agriculture sector is suffering. #Farmers are well into the planting season and fertilizer, if one can find a supply, is costing #farms more in up-front costs. It can cost $1,000/day in fuel to run an industrial farm tractor in the fields. #TrumpTariffs have raised the cost of farm equipment - and the ensuing #TradeWar has added unwelcome reductions in food commodity sales. 77% of US farmers voted for #Trump and identify as #Republicans. Recent polls show most will stick to their guns, in spite of their frustration. But there is some hope that at least some will swing blue, and that some will simply stay home.
Note: FARMING is one of my interests, a focus, so expect the occasional thread.
