As requests for advice on how to start
cricket farms, or overcome problems
that were being experienced arose, the
idea of collecting existing experiences and formulating guidance on cricket
farming emerged. This section seeks to
address this demand for more and clearer guidance and information. It systematically describes basic management
techniques needed to ensure best practices in raising crickets for food production.
These techniques are based on 20 years
of practical experience of cricket farming in Thailand, and previously unpublished data and knowledge collected by
the authors and support team. Robust
research data related to cricket farming
is still lacking, but will undoubtedly increase over time. However, in the interim, the growing cricket farming sector
can be enhanced through the application of known best practices and related guidance.
