Insect Colony Growth Projector

Colony growth projection helps insect farmers forecast population changes over multiple breeding cycles. A female cricket lays 100-200 eggs in her lifetime, with approximately 70-85% hatch rate under optimal conditions. By modeling reproduction, mortality, and harvest rates, farmers can plan facility capacity, feed procurement, and harvest scheduling weeks in advance.
