As the global population approaches 9 billion, the need for sustainable protein production has become a pressing concern. Insect farming has emerged as a promising solution to address the growing global demand for sustainable protein sources. With the rising concerns over environmental degradation, resource scarcity, and the need to ensure global food security, edible insects serves as a viable alternative to traditional livestock systems. Insects have a remarkable efficiency in converting feed into high-quality protein using minimal land and water resources and emits significantly lower greenhouse gases compared to conventional methods of protein production. This chapter explores the potential of insect farming for sustainable protein production, examining its nutritional, economic, and environmental benefits. Key areas of focus includes the different insect species suitable for consumption, the various processing techniques and product development from edible insects. Additionally, challenges such as public acceptance, regulatory frameworks, and food safety concerns are discussed, along with the strategies to overcome these barriers. By addressing these opportunities and challenges, insect farming can play a pivotal role in building a more sustainable and resilient global food system. Ultimately, this chapter argues that insect farming holds a great promise in developing a more sustainable and equitable food system and ensure access to nutritious protein for future generations.
