A: The protein digestibility of dried mealworms in aquaculture applications typically exceeds 85%. The natural chitin content also acts as a prebiotic, promoting healthy gut flora in farmed fish.
A: Absolutely. Wholesale dried maggots offer over 50% crude protein and an excellent lipid profile. They serve as a highly sustainable, cost-effective alternative to marine proteins for carnivorous species like trout and salmon.
A: Freeze-dried insects naturally retain a porous cellular structure, making them highly buoyant and ideal for surface-feeding fish. Microwave-dried insects can also be finely milled to integrate perfectly into extruded floating feed pellets.
A: Yes. Dried earthworms are rich in natural antimicrobial peptides and essential amino acids. Including them in aquafeed can naturally enhance the immune response and improve the overall survival rates of farmed shrimp and fish.
A: For farmed species including tilapia, salmon and trout, our field-tested recommendation is to replace up to 25-30% of conventional fishmeal with bulk dried Black Soldier Fly Larvae (BSFL). This inclusion rate matches the amino acid profile of fishmeal closely,…
