Summary
Feeding of insects offers new possibilities to overcome the protein gap in organic farming.
As natural decomposers, insects can successfully transform organic waste. Large scale insect production is based on by-products from the agri-food industry which otherwise would be discarded or underexploited. This video presents two feeding trials on laying hens on both processed and live insect larvae.
