Use of grasslands for insect protein production (BayWIPro)
Concept development
The decline in cattle farming in Bavaria requires alternative uses for the management of grassland in agriculture. Many grassland areas are only managed due to the incentive of high area premiums. On the otherhand, there is a shortage of high-quality protein feed, which leads to high Import. The larva of black soldier fly (BSF) can be a piece of the puzzle here and convert grassland fodder of limited use into needed high-quality protein fodder. The aim of the project is to analyse and design the necessary adaptations as well as optimisations of the complete process chain of grassland management, from cultivation and harvesting technology to storage (silage) and automated feeding into insect fattening. The aim is the preparation of a concept for the development of the optimal suitable plant technology for processing and automated feeding. In addition, a concept will be developed to determine which feed mixed with grass silage best meets the requirements of BSF larvae.
Results and the Final report will be found here, as soon as the project is completed.
