Olive Pomace Inclusion Alters the Microbial Community of Black Soldier Fly Larvae Frass While Maintaining Fertilizer Quality

open access: yesMicrobiologyOpen, Volume 14, Issue 6, December 2025.
Olive pomace was evaluated as a feed component for rearing BSF larvae in industrial scale. The presence of olive pomace did not affect larvae or frass composition, even when frass was submitted to heat treatment or pelletization. Bacterial and fungal communities were affected by olive pomace.
