Could Entomophagy Be an Effective Mitigation Measure in Desert Locust Management?

Ahmed Ali Samejo et al.

Summary: A field study in Pakistan showed that collecting and consuming desert locusts can help reduce their population and damage to crops, providing an effective method of preventing locust outbreaks.

Nosema locustae (Protozoa, Microsporidia), a Biological Agent for Locust and Grasshopper Control

Long Zhang et al.

Summary: Nosema locustae, a protozoan pathogen, has been developed as a biological control agent for locusts and grasshoppers with unique advantages such as safety, broad host spectrum, vertical transmission to offspring, long persistence in populations, and adaptation to various ecosystems. However, there are still limitations that need to be addressed for more efficient locust and grasshopper management in the future.

Ups and Downs of the Italian Locust (Calliptamus italicus L.) Populations in the Siberian Steppes: On the Horns of Dilemmas

Michael G. Sergeev

Summary: This paper discusses the issues arising from the eco-geographical distribution and long-term dynamics studies of the Italian locust in Central and Southwestern Asia and the Mediterranean Region, as well as their impact on pest species and rare forms management. It also explores the peculiarities and notable differences of Italian locust populations' distribution and long-term dynamics in the southern part of West Siberia and the north-eastern part of the species range. Additionally, the ecological association between the Italian locust and rare Orthoptera, as well as suggestions for improved monitoring and control of the Italian locust populations, are discussed.

Harvesting desert locusts for food and feed may contribute to crop protection but will not suppress upsurges and plagues

A. van Huis

Summary: The desert locust is the most destructive locust species in the world, with control of their population being crucial for agricultural production. While some suggest collecting locusts for consumption as a method of control, this is unlikely to significantly reduce their numbers.

New Technology for Desert Locust Control

Graham A. Matthews

Summary: Locust outbreaks typically start in remote areas with higher than average rainfall, making surveillance challenging. Using drones for early detection of locust concentrations can be more effective and environmentally friendly in applying biopesticides.

Trait preference trade-offs among maize farmers in western Kenya

Paswel P. Marenya et al.

Summary: The study found that male and female farmers have similar preferences for maize traits, but differ in the rate of trade-offs between traits. Women tended to make larger yield sacrifices for certain traits, while men showed higher willingness to sacrifice yield for other traits.
