The Edible Insects Market is expected to reach $16.39 billion by 2032, at a CAGR of 29% during the forecast period of 2023–2032. The growth of this market is driven by the growing greenhouse gas emissions from the livestock and poultry industries, the high nutritional value of insects, the environmental benefits of edible insects, the rising demand for insect protein in the animal feed industry, and the low risk of transmitting zoonotic diseases with the consumption of edible insects.
However, the lack of a standardized regulatory framework, psychological & ethical barriers to consuming insects as food, and the risk of allergies due to insect consumption is expected to restrain the growth of this market. Emerging economies are expected to hold significant growth opportunities for the players operating in this market. However, a lack of awareness regarding the benefits of insect consumption is expected to remain a major challenge for the growth of this market.

Based on product, the edible insects market is segmented into whole insects, insect powder, insect meal, and insect oil. In 2023, the whole insects segment is expected to account for the largest share of the edible insects market. The easy availability of whole insects, their lower cost compared to processed insects, the lack of insect processing facilities in some parts of the world, and the growing demand for insects in the animal feed industry are the key factors driving the growth of this segment.
Based on insect type, the edible insects market is segmented into crickets, mealworms, black soldier flies, buffalo worms, grasshoppers, ants, silkworms, cicadas, and other edible insects. The black soldier flies segment is expected to register the highest growth rate in the edible insects market during the forecast period of 2023 to 2032. The rapid growth of this segment is attributed to the growing aquaculture industry, rising demand for alternative proteins from the animal feed industry due to the rising prices of soy meal, increasing government support for the use of insect meal in livestock feed, and the increasing number of investments by key players in the black soldier fly industry.
