Desert Locust disaster : An
opportunity….?
Possibility to use for animal feed in Nepal
“Catch locusts, Earn
money, Save crops”-PKS
• Started: Africa,
• Reached: Pakistan,
India, and has
ultimately invaded
Nepal.
• It has added a new
“food security”
challenges to world
• 22 districts of Nepal
are affected till now
• Desert Locust Control
(DLC) costs: $US 38
million per annum in
Africa (Oxford 2002)
• 2003-2005 :
• Estimated $2.5
billion in crop
damage (WB 2020).
• Ethiopia: 356,286
metric tons of cereal
loss (FAO 2020)
• 80–100% crop losses
across affected areas
(Brader et al., 2006).
Locust (सलह): Economic Impact
• Source: FAO 2013
Locust: feed future
• Locust animal feed can be the part of DL control
• A 60-70% increase in consumption of animal products is expected by 2050 (FAO
2011).
• More than 900 thousand species of insect, more than 2000 species are edible
(Pedigo & Rice, 2015).
• Five insect: black soldier, house fly maggots, mealworm, locusts- grasshoppers-
crickets, and silkworm meal commercially rearing for animal feed
• Commercial farming of locusts in South East Asia.
• Chemical control of grasshoppers and locusts has many undesirable side-effects on
livestock health (Botha, 1974), human health (Houndekon and De Groote, 1998),
predator communities (Balança and De Visscher, 1997).
Locust (सलह): animal feed meal ?
• The meat from free-range grasshopper-fed broilers had lower
cholesterol (Sun Tao et al., 2012a).
• Higher antioxidative potential and longer storage life in poultry
meal (Sun Tao et al., 2012b).
• Feed conversion ratio: 95% (Oleg Krasilnikov 2015) Russia
• One kg of insect biomass can be produced from on average 2 kg of
feed biomass (Collavo et al., 2005).
• A single swarm can contain up to 10 billion insects and weigh
approximately 30,000 tons (DeFoliart, 1989; Ramos-Elorduy, 1997;
van Huis et al., 2013).
Locust (सलह): Animal Feed Practices
In Nigeria,
Broilers (1-28 days) given desert locust meal (Schistocerca gregaria) as a
substitute for fishmeal, replacing 50% fish meal protein with locust meal
(1.7% in the diet), resulted in higher body weight gain, feed intake and
feed conversion ratio (Adeyemo et al., 2008).
In China,
Meal from the grasshopper could replace 20% - 40% fish meal in broiler
diets with similar growth rate and feed consumption as the control diet
(Liu ChanMin et al., 2003).
Locust (सलह): Animal Feed Practices
In the Philippines,
Free-range chickens fed on grasshoppers have a preferred taste with a
higher market price (Khusro et al., 2012).
Later study, grasshopper meal included at 2.5% in the diet was found to be a
suitable and cheaper substitute for imported fishmeal (100% replacement on
weight basis) (Ojewola et al., 2005).
Meal of adult variegated grasshopper (Zonocerus variegatus) could replace
up to 25% fish meal (weight basis) in the diets of C. gariepinus fingerlings
without any adverse effect on growth and nutrient utilization at the same
protein level in the diet.
Sources: Alegbeleye et al., 2012
• Contain lysine, threonine and methionine which are limited
in cereal and legume-based diets.
• They are high in energy as well as rich in other nutrients such
as fat; unsaturated fatty acids important mineral salts and
vitamins (Thompson, 1973).
• Feed conversion efficiency of insects is also considered as
being higher compared to conventional livestock such as
pigs, cattle and chicken (Nakagaki and Defoliart, 1991; Van
Huis, 2013; Oonincx et al., 2015a)

Recent activity
• Live feeding to chicken and ducks
• Mixed with pets and zoo animal feed
• Dried and ground for broilers and fish meal
• Compound feed for poultry, fish and pig
