A Study on Insect Journey using Sensor
Abstract: The orthodox entomologist’s toolkit – the net, the vial, the killing jar – has long rendered its subject’s mute. We have cataloged insects by their form, their pinned and static beauty, but have been largely deaf to the living, breathing reality of their existence.

Harnessing Biomass for Sustainable Insect Farming and Biotechnology: Ecological Roles, Industrial Applications, and Future Opportunities
Abstract: Biomass, derived from biological materials, such as plant residues, animal waste, and agricultural by-products, plays a pivotal role in ecological systems, including those involving insects. Insects interact with biomass at multiple levels, serving as decomposers, pollinators, and converters of organic matter into valuable resources. The integration of biomass into insect ecology and farming has garnered significant attention for its potential in sustainable agriculture, waste management, and biotechnology. This review highlights …
