Comparative Analysis of Nutrients and Hazardous Substances in Locusta Migratoria from Host Plants

Abstract: BACKGROUND: It has been reported that the nutritional composition of Locusta migratoria (Orthoptera: Acrididae) changes nutrients depending on the host plants. In this study, to confirm whether Locusta migratoria is an edible insect, the nutrients and harmful substances such as heavy metals and pathogens were analyzed and compared according to corn (LC) or wheat (LW) as host plants. METHODS AND RESULTS: All experimental methods mainly referred to AOAC (2004). The content of crude protein per dry weight was 77.… Show more

“…Subspecies of the migratory locust Locusta migratoria L. (Orthoptera: Acrididae) have been recorded in various parts of the world and all of them are the main agricultural pests, causing significant economic damage (Kim et al, 2020;EFSA Panel on Nutrition et al, 2021). In favorable environmental conditions, some locust species exhibit gregarious and migratory behavior, which leads to the formation of spectacular swarms (Peng et al, 2020;Klein et al, 2021;Siddiqui and Khan, 2021).…”
