dc.description.abstract | Insect-based feed technology has a huge potential for job creation and income generation through establishment of mass insect-rearing, processing and trading businesses, and as well through improved egg and meat productivity and organic fertilizer commercialization. Black Soldier Fly (BSF) showed greatest potential, absence of nuisance, and conversion to organic fertilizer and animal protein. A total of 506 farmers, entrepreneurs, policy makers and scientists were trained on insect rearing for integration into animal feed, with radio-based awareness programs prompting responses from 25,388 listeners. The project demonstrated the feasibility of developing insect-based feeds for sustainable, safe and cost-effective poultry and fish production. | en |
