  "summary": "Insect proteins represent a promising and more sustainable alternative to soybean meal in swine nutrition. However, high dietary inclusion levels often result in reduced animal performance, indicating that factors other than crude protein concentration should be considered. This study evaluated the protein quality and degradability of feed-grade defatted black soldier fly (BSF) meal in comparison…",
