The edible insects market was valued at US$0.822 billion in 2020 and is expected to grow at a CAGR of 23.51% over the forecast period to reach a market size of US$3.606 billion in 2027.

Insects are often considered a nuisance for human beings, but their benefits are largely unknown to people. Insects provide food at a low environmental cost, play a fundamental role in nature, and contribute positively to livelihood. There was a time when the insect was treated as famine food, but now the trend has shifted. Now, insects are not just used in the scarcity of food, but it has become a food culture of many countries. Its amino acid content and essential vitamin content have made it be even used as dog food. The edible insect market is growing owing to the growing population and decreasing food resources, which opens up the need for finding sustainable and environment-friendly food production methods with high nutrition. The increasing acceptance of insects as food, decreasing fear of trying new foods, and the growing demand for an alternative source of animal protein have also propelled the market growth. Furthermore, the development of new technologies for the harvesting of insects and the minimal risk of disease transfer as compared to animal food is also boosting the market growth. However, the lack of distribution and networking channels, negative perceptions about insect consumption, lack of awareness, and various legislative requirements act as a concern for the market.

Easy Availability and nutritional value to boost the growth of the Market

The accessibility, as well as the affordability of edible insects, is extremely high. They can be cultivated and procured very conveniently and can be integrated into the daily diet as additives in several forms or as a whole, thereby improving the overall nutritional value of the food. Adding to that, edible insects call for very minimal processing post their harvestation, thus providing an extremely economical alternative to animal products which are coupled with a rising number of diseases. Among these edible insects, beetles are estimated to amount to the largest volume share. Further, insects are sustainable sources of amino acids, and proteins, along with being rich in minerals like Omega-3, minerals, and iron. They make for the perfect supplements for athletes.
