dc.description.abstract | Insects such as the Black Soldier Fly (Hermetia illucens, BSF) are increasingly recognized for their potential to convert organic waste into high-quality protein and fertilizer inputs, contributing to circular bioeconomy models. However, the type of substrate used significantly affects BSF production performance. | en_US |
