Insect-based feed is arising as an alternative protein source for animal feed. Insect-based feed is more sustainable and has a higher nutritive value. However, it is not publicly well-accepted because of consumer repulsion and concerns of food safety. In order to properly address concerns of food safety and risks involved in insect-based feed production, the Korean Hazard Analysis and Critical Control Points (HACCP) needs to implement new regulations that govern insect-based feed as there are currently none. Although modern technology allows for mass rearing insects, current production methods are high in costs. The production cost is one of the principal components in animal feed production. Therefore, innovations to mechanize and automate the production process and efforts to further reduce costs are necessary. Along with high costs, the current legislation is also a major obstacle to employing insect-based feed. Korea and many other countries inhibit the use of animal-based protein in animal feed which makes insect-based feed illegal. In order to move forward with insect-based feed, there must first be reforms in current regulations to permit the use of insects in animal feed. Despite the current barriers, insect-based feed may become more prevalent in the near future. Therefore, there also must be international laws enacted that can ensure food safety in the international trade of insect-fed animals.
