Dr. Eduardo Rico: Feeding Insects to Cows | Ep. 100
To celebrate the 100th episode of The Dairy Nutrition Blackbelt Podcast, we’re bringing you a special conversation with Dr. Eduardo Rico from the University of Pennsylvania. He explores the promising potential of insect-based protein in dairy cow diets and explains how nutritional quality, sustainability, and public perception could shape its future use in the U.S. and beyond. Listen now on all major platforms!
"When you look at the preliminary data, it doesn't seem like replacing part of the soybean meal makes cows crash in performance—if the diet is balanced for protein and amino acids."
Meet the guest: Dr. Eduardo Rico https://www.linkedin.com/in/eduardo-rico-8457b938/ is an Assistant Professor at the University of Pennsylvania’s School of Veterinary Medicine, with a strong background in nutritional biochemistry and applied dairy nutrition. His current research focuses on improving cow health through nutrition, including alternative feeds like insects and their impact on metabolism and sustainability.
