Abstract: This review was commenced to high spot the potential of insect based protein rations in monogastric livestock and consumers as technical substitute for the increasingly expensive fish based protein diets. A systematic literature review was carried out targeting original articles evaluating the utilization of insect based diets for livestock taking broiler poultry as a case study. The authors performed a systematic search using Pubmed, EMBASE, and Web of Science databases (published in a period from 1994 to January 2023 to identify the studies that reported the association between performance parameters and levels of substituition of insects based proteins for fish.
