Insects as feed
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
For the biological process of animals consuming insects, see entomophagy.
Insects as feed are insect species used as animal feed, either for livestock, including aquaculture, or as pet food.
As livestock feed production uses ~33% of the world's agricultural cropland use, insects might be able to supplement livestock feed. They can transform low-value organic wastes, are nutritious and have low environmental impacts.[1]
