Our Pledge
At Oberland, we respect the black soldier fly larvae (BSFL) as the engine that fuels our productivity and efficiency. Treating this species with respect means prioritizing their care and making sure their feed is nutritious and their environmental conditions match that of their natural environment. This commitment to quality and welfare ensures our BSFL become a nutrient-rich protein source ideally suited to aqua feed, livestock feed, and pet feed.
Our Founder & CEO – Dr. Greg Wanger
With a Ph.D. in Geology and Environmental Microbiology, Dr. Wanger is an experienced research scientist whose career milestones include five years at the NASA Jet Propulsion Lab, culminating in their optical organics mapper, SHERLOC, landing on Mars in February 2021 with the Perseverance Rover. In 2016, Greg and his family relocated to Halifax, Nova Scotia in Atlantic Canada. Shortly after, Dr. Wanger founded Oberland Agriscience Inc. out of his desire to address the escalating global protein shortage.
Combining a life-long passion for science and innovation with environmental activism, Dr. Wanger and his team are optimizing the black soldier fly to produce a premium, nutrient-rich, reliable protein for inclusion in aquafeed, pet food, and livestock feed.
