Industry in the UK is Reluctant to Embrace Insects Despite EU Push
In the wake of Brexit, the UK is facing a new challenge as its insect industry is not ready for the European Union’s (EU) upcoming regulations. Insects are a growing source of nutrition, feed, and bio-products, and the EU’s regulations could have a dramatic effect on the industry. Major companies such as Protix, Entomics, and Grub have been working hard to ensure their products meet the EU’s standards, but many smaller businesses are not ready to meet the regulations. With Brexit looming, the UK’s insect industry is in a precarious position, and it remains to be seen what the future holds.
