Eyes on the flies

Victor Afari-Sefa, Regional Director, WorldVeg West and Central Africa Coastal and Humid Regions, recently joined in the launch of ABiNET, a new network to promote insect-based aquaponics systems in the region.

In these systems, Black Soldier Files (BSF) serve as food for fish, and the fish wastewater is used to fertilize vegetable crops. Victor is in the blue shirt holding the sign, and Dr. Manuel Tamo, International Institute of Tropical Agriculture (IITA) Country Representative for Benin, is to Victor’s right.
