The initiative focuses on biological pest control using insects, addressing a market need in Colombia due to regulations against chemical fumigation in sugar mills. A group of students began cultivating insects for sustainable agricultural practices, which led to the creation of a well-organized company. They research various parasitic insects to combat specific pests and have developed a cricket protein meal, promoting awareness of insect consumption. Despite challenges such as dependence on sugar mills and environmental factors, they intend to diversify their offerings and improve operational processes to grow in the future.
