大麦虫人工养殖技术（Cultivation techniques of barley insects） Cultivation techniques of barley insects Barley insects, also known as super mealworms (superworm zophobas Morio) native to South Africa and Africa, is our country in recent years from Southeast Asian countries imported excellent forage insect species. Artificial breeding in the United States began in the 1985 and is now widely used throughout the world as food for reptiles, birds, and fish. The maximum body length 5-6 cm, Tenebrio molitor (Mealworm, Tenebrio than the general molito) 3 - 4 times as large as the individual, adult reproduction amount 3 times more than Tenebrio molitor (per female superworm after mating after continuous spawning 600 to 1000 grains, and no more than 300 grains of Tenebrio molitor L.). Barley insect larvae containing 51% protein, 29% fat, and contains a variety of amino acids, carbohydrates, vitamins, hormones, enzymes and minerals, phosphorus, iron, potassium, sodium, calcium and other nutritional value, far more than the maggots and earthworms, mealworms and crickets and other insects feed, plus its skin is soft and easy to digest, palatability well, is an excellent food fish or dragon breeding a variety of ornamental fish, ornamental birds, spinosa, turtles, snakes and other rare animal. With the rapid development of Chinas economy and the continuous improvement of peoples living standard, the demand for rare livestock and special aquatic animals will be more and more big. Nowadays, due to the lack of protein feed resources, the development of aquaculture has been restricted to a great extent. Therefore, the exploitation and utilization of barley insect will be the main direction of solving the source of protein feed in the future. It can continuously provide high-end protein feed for animals, and can also provide protein food for human beings. Barley insect breeding industrialization because of less investment, simple technology, is suitable for industrialized production and family
