项目摘要

This project will develop a black-soldier-fly breeding programme that will supply continuously improving high-performance genetics to insect-as-feed producers in different environments.Livestock and aquaculture protein demand is increasing due to human population growth, yet current production depends on volatile and unsustainable soy and fishmeal imports. An alternative source of protein for livestock and aquaculture feed are insects, which are rapidly growing in importance globally. Today there are 55+ black-soldier-fly producers in the UK, Europe, the Americas and Asia. Market calculations predict 300 production facilities worldwide by 2025, with a capacity of 10,000 tonnes of insect protein/yr and £2.1B/yr revenue. Black-soldier-fly producers need high-performance genetics because production facilities are capital intensive. However, black-soldier-fly producers do not have breeding resources and expertise to develop high-performance genetics, while there are no suppliers of such genetics (breeding programs).The objectives of the project are to develop black-soldier-fly breeding resources and tools, an optimised black-soldier-fly breeding programme and assess market landscape for delivery of high-performance black-soldier-fly genetics to producers.The project will achieve the above actions by combining the expertise of BetaBugs, The Roslin Institute, and M&S. This will deliver a black-soldier-fly breeding programme, which will double black-soldier-fly protein production by 2025\. This increased production will have further economic and environmental benefits to the wider agribusiness sector through sustainable local production of protein and new jobs. These benefits will in turn increase the efficiency and resilience of production feed and food and with that address the challenge of cleanly feeding a growing population.

该项目将制定一个黑蝇育种计划，为不同环境中的昆虫饲料生产者提供不断改进的高性能遗传学。由于人口增长，畜牧业和水产养殖业对蛋白质的需求正在增加，但目前的生产依赖于不稳定和不可持续的大豆和鱼粉进口。用于牲畜和水产养殖饲料的蛋白质的替代来源是昆虫，其在全球范围内的重要性正在迅速增长。今天，在英国、欧洲、美洲和亚洲有55个以上的黑蝇生产商。市场计算预测，到2025年，全球将有300个生产设施，年生产能力为10，000吨昆虫蛋白，年收入为21亿英镑。黑水虻生产者需要高性能的遗传学，因为生产设施是资本密集型的。然而，黑蝇生产商没有育种资源和专业知识来开发高性能遗传学，同时也没有这种遗传学的供应商（繁殖计划）。该项目的目标是开发黑水虻繁殖资源和工具，优化的黑蝇育种计划，并评估市场前景，以提供高性能的黑蝇，该项目将通过结合BetaBugs、罗斯林研究所和M&S的专业知识来实现上述行动。这将提供一个黑蝇育种计划，到2025年将使黑蝇蛋白质产量翻一番。产量的增加将通过可持续的本地蛋白质生产和新的就业机会，为更广泛的农业综合企业部门带来进一步的经济和环境效益。这些好处将反过来提高生产、饲料和粮食的效率和复原力，从而解决清洁喂养不断增长的人口的挑战。
