This chapter covers the farming of insects as an alternative strategy for the production of protein-rich feed with a low ecological footprint. It discusses relevant process parameters which manifest in the material in terms of feeding systems and technological process. The chapter specifically focuses on the black soldier fly, discussing methods used for rearing and challenges associated with mass production for waste management and protein production. The chapter should enable the reader to identify and relate the insect farming and the strategy of the industry.
