摘要

发展中国家的鸡肉生产成本比发达国家高出300%。过度依赖主要蛋白质饲料成分，特别是大豆和鱼粉(SFM)，其特点是食品饲料竞争加剧和供应链障碍，加剧了这种情况。近年来，利用昆虫蛋白作为一种可持续的替代蛋白质来源引起了全球的关注。然而，缺乏关于撒哈拉以南非洲农民对用于鸡生产的商业昆虫饲料的偏好的经验见解。本研究基于对314名主要养鸡户的调查，通过选择实验评估了肯尼亚农民为昆虫基商业鸡饲料的属性付费的意愿。结果表明，农民愿意支付0.35美元至3.45美元的溢价，购买颗粒或糊状形式的昆虫饲料、明确标明含有昆虫的饲料、混合SFM的昆虫蛋白饲料和深色饲料。这些发现为多方利益相关者合作提供了证据，以促进建立包容性的昆虫饲料监管框架，促进可持续饲料和鸡肉生产。

Smallholder farmers’ willingness to pay for commercial insect-based chicken feed in Kenya

The cost of chicken production in developing countries is 300% higher than in developed nations. Overreliance on the key protein feed ingredients especially soybean and fishmeal (SFM) that are characterized by rising food-feed competition and supply chain impediments exacerbate the situation. The use of insect protein as a sustainable alternative protein source has attracted global attention recently. However, there is a dearth of empirical insights on farmers’ preferences for commercial insect-based feed for chicken production in Sub-Saharan Africa. This study evaluated farmers’ willingness to pay for attributes of insect-based commercial chicken feed in Kenya using a choice experiment based on a survey of 314 predominantly chicken farmers. Results show that the farmers are willing to pay premium prices ranging between US$ 0.35 and US$ 3.45 for insect-based feed in the form of either pellets or mash, feed explicitly labelled as containing insects, insect protein feed mixed with SFM and dark-colored feed. These findings provide evidence for multi-stakeholder collaborations to facilitate the creation of an inclusive insect-based feed regulatory framework for sustainable feed and chicken production.

期刊介绍： The IFAMR is an internationally recognized catalyst for discussion and inquiry on issues related to the global food and agribusiness system. The journal provides an intellectual meeting place for industry executives, managers, scholars and practitioners interested in the effective management of agribusiness firms and organizations. IFAMR publishes high quality, peer reviewed, scholarly articles on topics related to the practice of management in the food and agribusiness industry. The Journal provides managers, researchers and teachers a forum where they can publish and acquire research results, new ideas, applications of new knowledge, and discussions of issues important to the worldwide food and agribusiness system. The Review is published electronically on this website. The core values of the Review are as follows: excellent academic contributions; fast, thorough, and detailed peer reviews; building human capital through the development of good writing skills in scholars and students; broad international representation among authors, editors, and reviewers; a showcase for IFAMA’s unique industry-scholar relationship, and a facilitator of international debate, networking, and research in agribusiness. The Review welcomes scholarly articles on business, public policy, law and education pertaining to the global food system. Articles may be applied or theoretical, but must relevant to managers or management scholars studies, industry interviews, and book reviews are also welcome.
