Variable-scale, modular, easily manufacturable, energy efficient, reliable, and computer operated Insect Production Superstructure Systems (IPSS) may be used to produce insects for human and animal consumption, and for the extraction and use of lipids for applications involving medicine, nanotechnology, consumer products, and chemical production with minimal water, feedstock, and environmental impact. An IPSS may comprise modules including feedstock mixing, enhanced feedstock splitting, insect feeding, insect breeding, insect collection, insect grinding, pathogen removal, multifunctional flour mixing, and lipid extraction. An IPSS may be configured to be constructed out of a plurality of containerized modules.

Embodiments of a feed additive delivery device, a system comprising a micro weigh machine and the feed additive delivery device, and a method for using the device and system are disclosed. A particular exemplary feed additive delivery device comprised a feed additive hopper for suppling feed additive to a rotary valve that meters feed additive from the hopper to a blow through assembly having an assembly inlet that receives feed additive from the rotary valve, an assembly outlet through which feed additive is dispensed, and an air port for drawing air into the assembly to facilitate feed additive dispensation through the assembly outlet. The system is useful for batching a composition comprising an animal feed and at least one coated animal feed additive, a delicate animal feed additive, or combinations thereof. For certain embodiments the animals are ruminants and the coated feed additive is a coated methionine product.

Embodiments disclosed include systems, apparatus, and/or methods to receive a target health status of and/or quality of bioproduct produced by a managed livestock and indications of health status and quality of bioproduct. The systems, apparatus, and/or methods generate a set of input vectors based on the target health status or bioproduct quality, and the indications of bioproduct quality, and health status, and provide the set of input vectors to a machine learning model trained to generate an output indicating a feed selection. The feed selection can be included in a feed blend and administered to the managed livestock, such that, upon consumption, it increases a likelihood of collectively improving the health status of the managed livestock and the bioproduct quality of the managed livestock.

The present disclosure relates to a continuous fermentation device that can ferment objects continuously fed thereinto while conveying the objects. The present disclosure provides a continuous fermentation device comprising a plurality of fermentation modules, each including: a conveyor belt, which transports objects that are continuously fed thereinto to be fermented from one side to the opposite side thereof; agitators, which is located on the conveyor belt; and an air diffuser, which is located on one side of the conveyor belt, in which the continuously fed objects to be fermented are fermented while being passed through the fermentation modules. According to the present disclosure, feeding of raw materials to be fermented, fermenting the raw materials, and discharging of the fermented materials are continuously performed so that it is possible to significantly reduce the processing time, thereby reducing the operation time of the production process. Accordingly, it is possible to achieve an increase in competitiveness, such as improved productivity, reduction of investment cost, etc., in the development of a method of mass production through solid-state fermentation, thereby innovatively reducing the production cost of the product.
