Abstract

Livestock production makes up 70 to 80% of the world's agricultural land use and yet only produces 18% of all calories and 25% of all proteins consumed by humans. To grow food for livestock uses 33% of the world's cropland. Although lifestyle changes, such as vegetarianism and veganism, may help to ...

Abstract

The utilization of insect protein in poultry feed is globally gaining momentum. However, the nutritional quality of meat from hen fed diet with black soldier fly larvae meal (BSFLM) as fishmeal (FM) substitute has received limited research attention. Our results revealed that feed substitution did...

Abstract

The cost of chicken production in developing countries is 300% higher than in developed nations. Overreliance on the key protein feed ingredients especially soybean and fishmeal (SFM) that are characterized by rising food-feed competition and supply chain impediments exacerbate the situation. The...

Abstract

Thirty male weaned crossbred rabbits (New Zealand White x local female), at 8 weeks of age and with initial live weight of 816 ± 83 g (Mean ± SD) were housed in individual cages to identify the fish meal replacement by cricket meal for growing rabbits. The protein content of the fish meal in the...

Abstract

Dietary honey bee royal jelly increases insect growth rates and adult body size. Royal jelly as a dietary supplement could enhance mass insect production by increasing the body size of mass-reared model species. To determine the effect of royal jelly on a cricket species, Gryllodes sigillatus...
