Abstract This study presents specific baseline protocols and actionable recommendations for processing and evaluating insect-derived products for food and feed applications, addressing current gaps in standardization and market integration. Processing methods and the utilization of insect-derived products are two critical aspects intrinsically linked to their market applicability for both food and feed purposes. Therefore, it is imperative to direct research efforts towards these domains, aiming to standardise pro…
