Black Soldier Fly (Hermetia illucens) Meal as a Promising Feed Ingredient for Poultry: A Comprehensive Review (2020, background): “The same evidence from a number of experimental studies has established that use of black soldier fly larvae as a part of a complete feed promoted the growth of commercial fish [18,20], poultry, and pigs [28,29].”
Fish offal recycling by the black soldier fly produces a foodstuff high in omega-3 fatty acids (2007, background): “Black soldier fly raised on poultry manure have been fed to several commercial species including poultry; catfish, Ictalurus punctatus; blue tilapia, Oreochromis aureus; and swine (Newton et al. 1977; Bondari and Sheppard 1981, 1987; Newton et al. 2005).”
Nutritional value of the black soldier fly (Hermetia illucens L.) and its suitability as animal feed – a review (2017, methodology): “…of some amino acids change in relation to larval diet, amino acid content showing a tendency to be slightly higher in larvae fed cattle manure (St-Hilaire et al., 2007b; Newton et al., 1977) than in larvae fed either swine manure (Newton et al., 2005b) or chicken manure (Arango Gutiérrez, 2005).”
Biological Treatment of Municipal Organic Waste using Black Soldier Fly Larvae (2011, methodology): “Since prepupae contain on average 44% crude protein and 33% fat [9], it is an appropriate alternative to ﬁshmeal in animal feed with a potential market value of 330 USD/ tonne dry weight [10].”
Effect of using insect larvae meal as a complete protein source on quality and productivity characteristics of laying hens (2016, background): “Black soldier fly larvae (BSFL) have been used to solve some environmental problems related to manure and other organic wastes, such as decreasing manure mass, moisture content, and offensive odors (Barry, 2004; Newton et al., 2005).”
Conversion of organic material by black soldier fly larvae: establishing optimal feeding rates (2009, background): “Previous studies focused on the degradation of cow, chicken or pig manure by Hermetia illucens larvae in cost- and maintenance-intensive systems of high-income countries (Sheppard et al. 1994, Newton et al. 2005a, b).”
