Role of Black Soldier Fly (<i>Hermetiaillucens)</i> Larvae Frass Bio-fertilizer on Vegetable Growth and Sustainable Farming in Sub-Saharan Africa

Food insecurity throughout Sub-Saharan African countries is a common problem and needs sustainable solution to improve crop yield production, rather than agricultural area expansion. Vegetables are important in sustaining the livelihood of many small-scale subsistence farmers contain vitamins, minerals, essential amino acids, none has cholesterol most low fat calories. also high fiber, which helps keep digestive system healthy. Vegetable production Africa faces numerous agronomic constraints that will have be overcome feed increasing population fight malnutrition. Major areas on continent consequently experience nutrient limitation as major gap component, especially densely populated areas. Now day one possible may come from insect farming, growing industry with broad potential. Black soldier fly (Hermetia illucens L) feces (frass) great potential valuable organic bio-fertilizer by positively affecting soil fertility ultimately vegetable yields. However, understanding this positive effect frass still limited our community very few researchers trying determine effects growth amendment explore utilization waste product novel bio-fertilizer. As nitrogen phosphorus uptake observed plots treated black fertilizer compared commercial mineral fertilizers could attributed better supply availability nutrients newly introduced fertilize. Clearly performed inorganic fertilizer. Therefore, further study awareness creation should conducted promote feasibility application its role amendment.
