摘要
While the information on live insect shipments provided in this thematic issue of the Scientific and Technical Review could not be exhaustive, it clearly represents a broad variety of trade, of substantial value, involving many stakeholders throughout the world. The contributions to this issue demonstrate that most of the trade in insects is carried out safely and efficiently. The concerns related to shipping insects described within this issue fall broadly into four categories: risks to human, animal and environmental health; delays and loss of quality; refusal of carriage; and high and variable costs. Some opportunities for improvements to insect shipping for diverse stakeholders are shown across these four areas of concern, with specific recommendations and a general call for further collaboration among stakeholders.
