Microbiological quality of Gonimbrasia belina processed under different traditional practices in Gwanda, Zimbabwe

Abstract

In Africa, most people living in rural areas are dependent on non-timber forest products for nutrition and income generation (FAO, 2012a). It has been reported that insects offer diet diversity and opportunities for income generation amongst the rural poor in developing countries (Illgner and Nel, 2000; Sunderland et al., 2004; Bukkens, 2005).
