Insect Biorefinery: Bioremediation and Frass Fertilizer for Sustainable Indigenous Vegetable Production

The data was collected from laboratory and greenhouse experiments conducted at the Animal Rearing and Quarantine Unit (ARQU) of the International Centre of Insect Physiology and Ecology (icipe), Kenya (S 01˚ 13’ 14.6’’; E 036˚ 53’ 44.5’’, 1,612 m above sea level). The lab experiments were used to determine P. ephipiatta frass fertilizer quality. Greenhouse experiment was established to assess the impact of P. ephipiatta frass fertilizer on vegetable production, in comparison with a commercial fertilizer. The data was collected between April and December 2029.本数据集采集自肯尼亚国际昆虫生理学与生态学中心（International Centre of Insect Physiology and Ecology, icipe）下属的动物饲养与检疫单元（Animal Rearing and Quarantine Unit, ARQU）开展的实验室与温室试验，该试验点坐标为南纬01°13′14.6″、东经036°53′44.5″，海拔1612米。其中实验室试验用于测定P. ephipiatta虫粪肥料的品质；温室试验旨在评估P. ephipiatta虫粪肥料相较于商用肥料对蔬菜生产的影响。本数据集的采集时段为2029年4月至12月。
