BLACK SOLDIER FLY BIO-FARMING · UNITED STATES & LATIN AMERICA

Insect Proteins for a Greener Tomorrow

At Amera Biotech, we are developing insect proteins, oils and natural fertilizers to create a more sustainable, climate-smart and secure food system for the planet.

WHAT WE DO

One Insect. Four Products. Zero Waste.

We run black soldier fly bio-farms that turn organic material that would otherwise be a disposal cost into whole dried larvae, protein, lipids and fertilizer.

PROJECTS IN DEVELOPMENT

10+ in the U.S. & Latin America

As of Jan 2026
SELECTIVE BREEDING

6 unique BSF colonies & 40+ generations and counting

Growth · uniformity · conversion · survivability
RESIDUAL WASTE

Every output is commercialized 

Every input leaves as a scalable commercial product

OUR VISION

Why the black soldier fly?

Cattle take the better part of two years to reach market. Black soldier fly larvae take less than two weeks.

 

BSFL turn organic material that would cost money to dispose of into whole dried larvae, protein, lipids and fertilizer, all in a footprint measured in square feet rather than acres.

BSF is better for the planet than other proteins

Under two weeks

A complete cycle from egg to harvest, all year long

No cropland behind it

Our larvae are reared on agricultural waste streams and byproducts. We do not grow crops specifically to feed them.

Nothing taken from
the food chain

Soy is a human food crop and fishmeal is wild-caught forage fish. Our feedstock is neither.

New to the animal

BSFL is a novel protein source that can be useful in elimination diets because most pets have not been previously exposed to it.

OUR PRODUCTS

Four products from a single process

One rearing cycle, separated at harvest into whole dried larvae, a defatted high-protein meal, a lauric-acid-rich lipid and a frass fertilizer.

​

Each leaves the plant with its own specification, its own market and its own buyer. Zero waste: every pound has a destination.

Genetics & selective breeding

Selecting on growth rate, uniformity, feed conversion and survivability under commercial conditions. We maintain and selectively breed 6 unique colonies and over 40 generations of BSF.

TECHNOLOGY

Insect technology in action in our Colombia Biotech Center

We have developed and are managing an advanced insect technology platform with a genetics and selective breeding program demonstrating industry-leading results.

Neonate Revive Program

Neonate suspension technology supporting projects in the U.S. and Latin America, reducing start-up costs and accelerating time to market for new BSF farming operations.

Engineering & automation

Climate-controlled rearing, automated substrate handling and harvest, and process control systems have been developed, tested and optimized for small, medium, and large-scale projects.
