Uso de las larvas de moscas soldados negras (Hermetia illucens), como alternativa alimenticia para pollos de engorde

In the development of this research based on the "Use of black soldier fly larvae (Hermetia illucens), as an alternative food for broiler chickens." in which it was proposed as an objective, to analyze the advantages of using black soldier fly larvae (Hermetia illucens) as an alternative food applied in the diet of broiler chickens. The methodology, is determined to be based on a basic type of research, where it was developed under a descriptive-analytical approach, with a qualitative research design, in its development it determined the scale of production of broiler chickens in Ecuador, their nutritional requirement, nutritional value of the larvae, their definition, which ones, and how they act, finally, the optimal levels of incorporation in the feed and its benefits in birds were identified. As for the results, the replacement with black soldier fly larvae applied in the feeding of broiler chickens, have provided an enlightening vision of the strategies implemented by producers, the analysis indicates that adding between 20 and 30 percent of larvae meal to the diet has a significant impact without negatively affecting performance, but if more than 40% is applied there will be digestive problems (diarrhea, indigestion) also accumulation of fats in the tissues, and affect the potability of the feed. In conclusion, they contain a large amount of crude proteins between 40 and 50% of high quality, which are vital for the growth and development of birds. In addition, they provide a variety of micronutrients, such as vitamins such as B2, B5, B7, B9 and minerals that generally range between 20% and 40% of the total diet, can provide significant nutritional benefits..

En el desarrollo de esta investigación basada en las “Uso de las larvas de moscas soldados negras (Hermetia illucens), como alternativa alimenticia para pollos de engorde.” en el cual se planteó como objetivo, analizar las ventajas del uso de larvas de mosca soldado negra (Hermetia illucens) como alternativa alimenticia aplicados en la dieta de pollos de engorde. La metodología, se determina que se basó en un tipo de investigación básico, donde se desarrolló bajo un enfoque descriptivo-analítico, con un diseño de investigación cualitativo, en su desarrollo de determino la escala de producción de pollos de engorde en el Ecuador, su requerimiento nutricional, valor nutricional de las larvas su definición, cuales, y como actúan, por último, se identificaron los niveles óptimos de incorporación en la alimentación sus beneficios en las aves. En cuanto a los resultados, la suplantación con larvas de mosca soldado negra aplicados en la alimentación de los pollos de engorde, han proporcionado una visión esclarecedora de las estrategias implementadas por los productores, el análisis indica que agregar entre 20 y 30 por ciento de harina de larvas a la dieta tiene un impacto significativo sin afectar negativamente el rendimiento, pero si se aplica más 40% va existir problemas digestivos (diarrea, indigestión) también acumulación de grasas en los tejidos, y afectar la potabilidad del alimento. En conclusión, contienen una gran cantidad de proteínas cruda de entre el 40 y 50% de alta calidad, que son vitales para el crecimiento y desarrollo de las aves. Además, proporcionan una variedad de micronutrientes, como vitaminas como B2, B5, B7, B9 y minerales que generalmente oscilan entre el 20% y el 40% del total de la dieta, pueden proporcionar beneficios nutricionales significativos.
