InsectFish—The Use of Insect Meal in the Fish Sector in Creating Farm-to-Fork Value: Chemical and Quality Characteristics of Sparus aurata Fillets Fed Hermetia illucens Larvae-Based Feed

The aquaculture sector has seen significant growth recently but also faces sustainability challenges due to the use of fish meal and fish oil. This project explored the potential of using partially defatted Hermetia illucens (black soldier fly) larvae meal (BSFL meal) as a sustainable alternative to fish meal in Sparus aurata diets. The trial was conducted with 132 fish reared in six tanks and fed two aquafeeds: a standard (CTRL) and an experimental (IF) in which fish meal was replaced (10%)...
