While insect consumption by humans or entomophagy has been
traditionally practiced in various countries over generations and
represents a common dietary component of various animal species
(birds, fish, mammals), farming of insects for human food and
animal feed is relatively recent. Production of this
'mini-livestock' brings with it several potential benefits and
challenges. The objective of this document is to provide the reader
with an overview of the various food safety issues that could be
associated with edible insects. The intended audiences of this
publication are food safety professionals, policymakers,
researchers, insect producers as well as consumers. The regulatory
frameworks that govern production, trade and consumption of insects
in various regions are discussed. The document ends with
elucidating some other major challenges, such as consumer
acceptance and scaling up production, that the edible insect
industry would need to overcome to have a more global reach
