Please recommend me original research on production of edible insects.
Hola, primo Guillermo (yo soy Rico de segundo apellido, apellido por cierto originario de mi pueblo -Luarca, en Asturias)
I am also interested on this issue.
You can find some interesting research papers on www.sciencedirect.com, the searching tool for Elsevier Editorial publications. You probably can find papers also on Willey database, Springer, etc.
¡Suerte!

I have cultivated crickets in small scale and I could provide you some practical information. There are a lot of relevant videos on YouTube.
Feel free to contact me for details!
Good luck!
