Tyson Foods has partnered with the Dutch company Protix to build a large-scale insect ingredient facility in the United States. The facility will upcycle food manufacturing byproducts into insect proteins and lipids for use in pet food and livestock industries. This move is framed as part of a broader trend toward alternative protein sources.

Professor Don Layman explains the biological importance of ruminant animals like cattle, sheep, and goats in the food system. These animals "upcycle" inedible grasses from marginal lands into high-quality essential amino acids through the bacteria in their stomachs. The process converts 60 grams of plant protein into 100 grams of balanced animal protein, a feat impossible for other animals or synthetic alternatives.
