Olympia Yarger farms maggots. And crickets. And mealworms. Her company, Goterra, is using technology to create a new and protein-focused farming industry...based on insects!

Olympia is quick to explain she's an agriculture company using technology, not a technology company focused on agriculture. Drawing on her farming background, she's committed to building out a supply chain- and industry- for insect farming in Australia.

In this episode, Olympia takes us through:

Who eats insects and why, and the differences between crickets, mealworms, and black soldier flies
The challenges ahead for building an insect protein industry, such as transparency, managing the perception of insects, regulations, and developing a supply chain
Why Australia is a great place to farm bugs
What it's like to talk to farmers, government, and investors about bugs
