| Zusammenfassung: | This study was conducted to compare the nutritional composition of white-spotted flower chafer (
) larvae produced from five commercial insect farms in Korea. The feeding sources of larvae were different as follows: Farm A, fermented oak sawdust; Farm B, fermented oak and scrub sawdust; Farm C, commercial feed; Farm D, private fermented feed; and Farm E, byproduct from mushroom compost. Drying yield significantly varied by insect farm, ranging from 14.12% to 27.28%. However, there was only small difference (5.14-7.38 g/100 g) in moisture content of dried larvae powder (p |
