East African locust exterminators have been working, so why are they grounded now?

When we talk about pests, the locusts that stand out the most are the ones. Because locusts are now all over Africa, one of the effects they have caused is very bad. At the same time, a locust extermination plane in East Africa is also facing such a grounding problem because of a shortage of funds.

There are also many netizens who are very worried, because now there is a big cost for one of their actions, and now** is considering. <>

And this cost has been more than doubled. For such an economy, there is not a real funding in some of the countries associated in their East Africa. Therefore, in the face of such a situation, they are forced to make a corresponding stop.

And what we can see is that they are in a very nervous state of the locust right now. For such a state, if you want to completely eliminate it, it will take nearly 40 million US dollars, such a huge amount of money, we can see that we still need a related organization, so that we can really solve such a related problem. <>

At the same time, we can understand that there is now a relevant United Nations that has proposed a corresponding bailout. In the face of such a thing, we also have reason to say that it really makes people feel very scared, and it is the occurrence of such a thing, which also makes many netizens feel very strange, why locusts cause such an incident in East African countries, it really makes people feel very unacceptable. At the same time, it is the first time that many countries have suffered the largest locust plague in more than 50 years.

In the face of this disaster brought by locusts, many countries have made grain in a large area this year, resulting in a reduction in production, and at the same time, this has also caused a state of no harvest. <>

And a lot of the population is on the verge of a mirror, and we also need to imagine one thing, that is, the problem is still very serious. And for its total grain output in 2021, a lot of grain ** will still continue to decrease. It can be said that this kind of thing makes people feel very scared.

At the same time, one of the things we also need to understand is that for such a thing, it is still very bad for people. Therefore, when faced with such a thing, we have reason to say that it really makes people feel very scared, and we should take immediate measures.

Probably because the work of this plane is now coming to a successful conclusion, and the number of locusts is not very large.

The extermination of locusts in East Africa is a problem that has not been solved for a long time, and now it is facing a grounding, most likely because of the problem of funding, and the East African economy is not very good.

Funding reasons. The Food and Agriculture Organization of the United Nations warned on January 19 local time that the locust extermination "flying teams" formed by East African countries to fight the locust invasion may stop their activities due to the depletion of funds to maintain their operations.

At first there were only three affected countries, but since then, the locust swarm has moved rapidly. Large populations of locusts have emerged in Djibouti, Eritrea, South Sudan, Uganda and Tanzania. At present, locusts have spread widely throughout eastern Africa.

The cost of action has doubled to $100 million. The initial plan was only $76 million. <>

So it's not enough. If follow-up funding is not secured, it may be stopped in March. I want to completely heal this locust plague here.

About $38.8 million is still needed. With the support of FAO, many countries in Africa. A large-scale locust eradication operation was carried out.

A total of 28 aircraft were deployed. and a lot of manpower and material resources on the ground. <>

When the first wave of locusts first emerged in East Africa in early January 2020, fueled by unusually end-of-season cyclone-induced torrential rains, many countries had little or no capacity to monitor pest activity or carry out large-scale control activities. In fact, most countries have not seen locust plagues of this magnitude in more than 50 years. <>

By the end of 2020, more than 25 million people had been affected by locust infestations. More than 100 million people are expected to be affected eventually. There are 400 billion locusts in total.

If we do not get it, the grain output will be reduced on a large scale or even the harvest will be lost. There will be large numbers of people on the verge of starvation. If you want to do this, you have to work closely with many countries.

After the locust plague broke out, China immediately provided assistance to Pakistan. At the same time, all aid materials have been delivered to Ethiopia, Kenya and Uganda for locust prevention and control technical programs, and China has provided a total of 112 tons of malathion medicine, 2,000 knapsack mobile sprayers, 3,500 hand-held ultra-low volume sprayers and 4,000 sets of protective clothing, masks and gloves to the three African countries. Judging by the current situation, the total global food production in 2021.

The locust plague will make the locust damage more serious, and the locust plague will cause a decrease in grain production and even a shortage of food, make people's food problems urgent, people's food cannot be guaranteed, people will panic, and disrupt social order.

It may allow the locust plague to continue to spread rapidly, and the locusts will continue to grow rapidly in a short period of time, so that the original achievements will be turned into ashes, and the farmers' crops will be lost, causing important economic losses and food shortages.

The impact is severe, as these locusts cause serious economic losses, environmental pollution, and many lives are threatened.

It will make those locusts unable to be effectively eradicated, which will have a great impact on some grains, will greatly reduce the output of grain, and will also make the scope of these locusts more extensive and cause greater impact.
