ANIMAL FEEDS
Feeding Animals with Black Soldier Fly Larvae
By Roseanne Mwangi
BLACK SOLDIER FLY farming is done for one of two reasons; to aid in waste management, or to produce BSF larvae for use as protein component in animal feeds. Black Soldier Fly is gaining popularity for its essential amino acid rich protein profile, with levels ranging from 40% to 60% of their dry weight. The levels of amino acid depend on the type of substrate the larvae feeds on in addition to beneficial fats fiber, and micro nutrients such as calcium and iron.
Animals that feed on BSF larvae
BSF seems naturally suited as feed for mo- nogastric animals more than it is suited for ruminants.
Poultry
Poultry farming benefits in improvement of productivity and management of flocks when BSF larvae is introduced in their diets. A diet that has BSF larvae as the protein component in layers mash has been seen to assist the birds improve their egg production and main- tain optimal performance for much longer. In broilers and free range chicken, enhanced meat quality has been reported. The flies fed to turkeys, ducks and ornamental birds alike, deliver great results in feather quality, among other characteristics.
Aquaculture
Aquaculture has also embraced the inclu- sion of black soldier fly larvae- an ideal sup- plement for fish and shrimp diets- reducing dependence on fishmeal derived from wild- caught fish.
Swine
Insect oil is also used in special recipes of petfood to address energy deficiencies or di- et-based management of health issues such as dry skin and fur. For ruminants such as cows, goats and sheep, defatted BSF larvae is being tested to establish its suitability as an alternative protein source, as ruminants do not work well with fats, and that in many instances the protein for their meals have been plant based, and insect protein is a form of animal protein.
How to incorporate BSF in animal feeding
Introduce it in small quantities initially, grad- ually increasing as animals acclimatize. For poultry and fish, BSFL can replace all the pro- tein used in the feed, or supplement tradi- tional feeds. It is important to note and keep in mind that BSF doesn’t come to replace traditional feeds, but rather to supplement them.
As a protein and fat source, it only provides for part of the dietary requirements and not for all the dietary requirements. In livestock farming, balancing the nutritional needs of animals is crucial for achieving optimal results. In addition to protein and fats, the animal will still need carbohydrates, vitamins and minerals.
This is to say that we need other ingredi- ents representing the other food groups to be fed to the animal at the same time that one is feeding them BSF. The KALRO offers trainings of Trainers on feed formulation us- ing methods such as the Pearson Square among others. Technology is also helping bring knowledge close to the users through tools such as the feed calculator app www. feedcalculator.org where a farmer can access an optimised formular that has BSF as the main protein source.
Animals fed on BSF larvae experience en- hanced nutritional benefits and have been reported to use less antibiotics, a fact that’s been attributed to development of a healthy and strong gut microbiome as a result of feeding on BSF Larvae.

Your Practical Guide to Organic Farming
When feeding pigs for growth, BSF larvae with its high protein content is well suited for this. This is because it contributes to rapid muscle development, and in this way promot- ing high meat quality and overall health. Pork from pigs fed on BSF larvae has the desirable quality of having well marbled meat, a factor that is sometimes used to gauge the quality of the carcass presented at slaughter, and therefore fetches higher price.
Pets
BSF larva is proving to be a good source of protein for pets such as cats and dogs.
