Descripción
Moroccan Locust (DMA) hatching started in Tajikistan earlier than in other countries, at the beginning of March. DMA hatching in Afghanistan and Uzbekistan was recorded during the second and third decades of March. During the forecast period, DMA hopper development will continue in the above countries, while hatching will begin in Kazakhstan, Kyrgyzstan, Turkmenistan and the Russian Federation, as well as in Azerbaijan and Georgia. Italian Locust (CIT) hatching may start in the southern countries of Caucasus and Central Asia (CCA) at the end of the forecast period. Asian Migratory Locust (LMI) hatching is not expected in April. By the end of March, in total 2950 hectares (ha) have been treated against DMA in Tajikistan and Uzbekistan, which is less than in March 2021 (5818 ha) and in March 2020 (13 000 ha).
