“…On a dry matter basis, BSF larvae contain 37% to 63% crude protein, 7% to 39% fat Bosch et al, 2014), 8% calcium, 1% to 2% phosphorus, 0.1% to 0.3% sodium and 0.4% to 1% magnesium Newton et al, 2005a). BSF larval meal has been used as an ingredient in feed for fish (Cummins Jr et al, 2017;Devic et al, 2018;Dumas et al, 2018;Kroeckel et al, 2012;Li et al, 2016;Magalhaes et al, 2017;Zarantoniello et al, 2018), poultry (Maurer et al, 2016;Onsongo et al, 2018; and pigs Driemeyer, 2016;Newton et al, 1977;, with promising results. However, there is no exhaustive information on the influence of BSF larval meal (BSFLM) on performance and health response of growing pigs.…”
