academic and research institution in Kenya and has been pioneering research in insect science
and technology for food and feed in Western Kenya. The University working in collaboration
with regional and international institutions has initiated rearing and value addition of insects for
food and feed. | |
| dc.description | Through ACE II, the University in collaboration with local, regional and international partners
