Desert locusts still a threat in east Africa
While some parts of east Africa have almost eliminated desert locusts, the situation remains serious in some countries as well as in Yemen, raising fears that a new wave could emerge and spread across the region. The UN Food and Agriculture Organization, or FAO, said that in Kenya, only a few immature swarms remain in the northwest part of the country, but aerial control operations are ongoing. The UN agency warned that a small third generation of breeding is likely to commence in October but it may be limited by below-normal rains that are predicted for this year. Jane Mule, from Kenya's Kitui county, hopes the third generation of locusts will be controlled in the current breeding areas to avoid a repeat of massive destruction. "I can't imagine similar swarms landing in my farm or pasture land. I don't wish to experience a similar destruction. I call upon the government to do the best it can to eliminate the insects," Mule said. In northeast Ethiopia, numerous hopper bands ... » Learn More about Desert locusts still a threat in east Africa
