In these areas of the world, people raising crickets are earning an average $5-10,000 net. And that's in areas where the average gross income is under $6,000. People and businesses have been breeding crickets as food for chickens, reptiles and fish for 70 years. Right now, the insect farming market is growing by more than 20% annually. The insect farming business is shifting to expanding its niche in the human food markets. They are packed with protein for their size. According to the North American Coalition for Insect Agriculture (NACIA), crickets as human food are high protein and can be prepared by cooking or by being ground into flour. The flour becomes a high protein ingredient in various foods such as tortilla chips and protein bars. Organisations like NACIA are valuable organizations for anyone who wants to raise crickets, especially for human consumption. Their goal is to help people get past any aversion to eating insects. Cricket farming is a term used to describe the practice of raising crickets. Cricket farming is a technique for raising crickets. You can raise them outside if you have a warm enough environment to keep them in. If you have been finding it hard starting a cricket business, this book is the perfect starting place for you.
