Enhancing Livestock Health with Insect-Based Feed

Insect-based feeds, such as those derived from yellow mealworms and black soldier fly larvae, offer numerous health benefits for livestock. These insects provide high-quality protein and bioactive compounds that enhance growth and immune function. Immune Boosting Properties: The antimicrobial peptides in mealworms and BSF larvae help protect livestock from infections, reducing the need for antibiotics and promoting overall health (Yi et al. 2014). Research has demonstrated that these peptides can inhibit the growth of various pathogens, including E. Coli and Salmonella (Veldkamp et al. 2012). Nutritional Efficiency: Insects are efficient converters of feed into high-quality protein, which is crucial for the growth and development of livestock. YiHealth′s insect-based feeds ensure that animals receive optimal nutrition with minimal environmental impact. Studies have shown that insect protein can replace up to 25% of soybean meal in livestock diets without adverse effects on growth performance (Makkar et al. 2014). By choosing BeyondFeed products, farmers can enhance the health and productivity of their livestock while supporting sustainable agricultural practices.
