In this episode, Matt learns about cricket farming. You will learn with him about cricket protein and cricket consumption. Cricket and insect ranching and farming play a roll in national nutritional security and may represent an opportunity for food exports.
Matt's guests include Dr. Sonny Ramaswamy, director of the National Institute of Food and Agriculture (NIFA); Gagi Lewis, co-founder of Exo, a maker of cricket-based protien bars; and Kelly Sturek, co-founder and CEO of Bugeater Foods, a bug-based food company.
