Ingredient, Livestock, Sustainability, ProteinsAbstract
Key words: Given the growing search for alternatives for food and feed, the use of a protein source from large-scale insect breeding appears to be an attractive prospect today. Insect breeding, due to the nature of the species, has some advantages that further reinforce its use, such as feeding on a range of industry by-products, not competing with the use of food resources, having high nutritional value, and, when consumed, act in the development of beneficial microbiota and as immunomodulators. Some studies highlight the use of flours of different insects as a substitute for animal meal and soybean meal in monogastric feed, which in addition to providing a similar amino acid profile and / or superior to these conventional ingredients can reduce the cost. feed consumed by monogastric species of zootechnical interest, significantly impacting the production system. Some points about the viability of production of these flours for use as a source of protein in animal feed deserve to be highlighted, so the present work seeks to gather the applications and recent results obtained with the use of insect flour in the food and nutrition of monogastric animals, impacts on performance, health and the quality of the products originated.
