When you think of farms you probably think cows,chickens,pigs,sheep or even less known frog,alligator, and fish farming.
Would you believe there are Insect farms! Insects in parts of the World (even the U.S.) are eaten by people, sold for laboratory research, and sold as feeders for animals like reptiles and amphibians.
Rooms can be filled with thousands or millions of insects in plastic storage tubs, glass tanks, aswell as jars and other things. Most common farmed insects are crickets,mealworms, and cockroaches as these all breed well in captivity, live well together, and grow fast and offer the best protein.
Some people do it from home, other places are like factories with rows and rows of containers and shelves filled with insects and the temperature and humidity has to be just right, but boy does it stink inside!!!
Here is a links to read on it.
