Soil amendment potential of black soldier fly (Diptera: Stratiomyidae) frass/exuviae: implications for plant biomass allocation and salicylic acid induction.
PubMed · 2026-05-17
Waste left over from farming black soldier fly larvae — the insect used to convert food scraps into animal feed — can act as a fertilizer that also primes plants to defend themselves against pests, even before any pest shows up.
1
BSF frass/exuviae elevated salicylic acid levels in bok choy plants even without any herbivore attack, indicating passive priming of plant defenses.
2
Plants treated with BSF by-products showed a significantly higher root-to-shoot ratio compared to chemical fertilizer controls, shifting biomass allocation toward roots.
3
Fermenting or granulating the frass before use did not change plant growth or photosynthesis outcomes relative to raw, unprocessed material.
