This 138-paged book highlights the opportunity for the inclusion of insects into animal feed for livestock, pets, aquaculture and exotics. It also details the challenges which still need to be overcome to enable the global establishment of insect farming as a profitable and sustainable source of feed ingredients. The aim is to provide information to enable all interested parties to evaluate use of insects as feed ingredients as a revenue stream, as a contributor to global sustainability or as a topic for further academic study or engineering challenge. Researchers, legislators, potential producers and investors, nutritionists, veterinarians as well as environmental and social campaigners will all find material in these pages to inform and interest as well as intrigue them.
