Here's a link to a good introduction to this concept of cultivation of 
BSF grubs for responsible management of organic "wastes," reclamation of 
their residual fertility to feed the soil, and "harvesting" of the grubs 
themselves as high-octane poultry, pig, or farmed fish food. I'm pushing 
this one hard myself, as a way of generating more high quality protein 
feed for my poultry. Check it out.
