India has a diverse range of aquaculture practices due to its vast coastline, numerous rivers, lakes and reservoirs and vannamei shrimp, pangasius, tilapia, and Indian major carps – like catla, rohu, and mrigal – are among the most widely farmed species. However, the sector faces several challenges, including disease outbreaks, water pollution and market demand. Ensuring a steady supply of quality feed ingredients and addressing market demand and price fluctuations are also key concerns.
 

Insects are emerging as a viable source of sustainable alternative ingredients – primarily insect protein concentrate or insect meal and insect fat oil – across the globe. Multiple startups have emerged over the last decade to mass produce and process insects into animal feed ingredients. The growth of aquaculture and the increasing demand for feed, with stagnating supplies of conventional ingredients – like fish meal, fish oil, krill meal and krill oil – have created tailwinds for the insect industry.
