R. B.  aChemical composition and nutrient digestibility of insect meal for broiler.h[electronic resource]  c2020  aTo determine the chemical composition and digestibility of insect meal for poultry made from the larvae of Tenebrio molitor (TL) and nymphs of Gryllus assimilis (GAN) a total excreta collection test was carried out, substituting 20% of the reference diet with each type of meal. The meals presented 6074 and 5975 kcal/Kg of gross energy, with 49.34% and 52.66% protein for TL and GAN respectively. The most nutrient digestibility was less than 65%, except for energy and ether-extract digestibility in the meal from Tenebrio molitor larvae, which were over 70%. The meals under analysis can be used as a source of nutrients in poultry diets.  aDiet  aGallus gallus  aGryllus assimilis  aNutrients  aPoultry feeding  aTenebrio molitor  aAlimentação  aAvicultura  aDieta  aNutriente1 aLOPES, P.
