摘要

在肯尼亚西部地区,食用昆虫作为高营养价值的蛋白质来源发挥着重要作用。然而,目前关于肯尼亚西部食用的蚱蜢/蝗虫物种的知识以及对这些昆虫作为替代蛋白质来源的看法并没有得到很好的记录。向肯尼亚西部四个县的901名回答者发放了问卷。调查结果显示,91.6%的受访者听说过蚱蜢/蝗虫是可食用昆虫,51.2%的受访者食用过蚱蜢/蝗虫。鉴定最多的食用菌是鞑靼棘蟹(Cyrtacanthacris tatarica),占58.6%;其次是格里格尔血吸虫(Schistocerca gregaria),占25.7%;大多数消费者(60.0%)是由亲戚介绍的,少部分是由朋友介绍的(34.0%),5.7%是由自己介绍的。在从未吃过的人中,53.8%的人不愿意尝试,11.9%的人愿意尝试。在市场上,97.9%的人表示从未购买过,而只有2.1%的人购买过昆虫。最受欢迎的烹调方法是烟熏/烤,占53.3%。50.1%的人表示愿意养狗,21.0%的人表示不确定。受访者高度偏好饲养昆虫作为食物和饲料的频率为50.4%。结果表明,研究人群对可食用的蚱蜢/蝗虫种类有一定的了解,并愿意饲养可食用昆虫作为蛋白质的替代食物来源。

Current Knowledge and Perception of Edible Grasshopper/Locusts’ Consumption in Western Kenya
Edible insects play an important role as a protein source of high-nutritional value in the western region of Kenya. However, current knowledge on edible grasshopper/locust species consumed in western Kenya and the perception towards these insects as an alternative protein source are not well documented. A questionnaire was issued to 901 respondents in four counties of western Kenya. The results showed that 91.6% of the respondents had heard that grasshoppers/locusts are edible insects and that 51.2% of the respondents had consumed them. The most frequently identified edible species was Cyrtacanthacris tatarica, with 58.6% cases followed by Schistocerca gregaria (25.7%), while Ruspolia differens was the least identified (1.2%). The majority of the consumers (60.0%) were introduced to entomophagy by their relatives, fewer by their friends (34.0%), and 5.7% by themselves. For those who had never eaten them, 53.8% were unwilling to try, while 11.9% were willing. On availability in the market, 97.9% indicated having never bought, while only 2.1% had bought the insect. The highly preferred method of cooking was smoking/roasting at 53.3%. The majority at 50.1% indicated the willingness to rear, while 21.0% were undecided. The frequency of the respondents who highly preferred to rear the insect for food and feed was 50.4%. The results suggest that the study population has knowledge of edible grasshopper/locust species and is willing to rear edible insects as an alternative protein food source.
