Assessment of potential biopesticide options for managing fall armyworm (Spodoptera frugiperda) in Africa

2018-11-01

Abstract excerpt

The fall armyworm (FAW, Spodoptera frugiperda) originates from the tropical and sub‐tropical regions of the Americas. Recently it was reported for the first time in Africa and has since spread rapidly across more than 30 countries in the continent. Chemical pesticides are being promoted and used for FAW management, but where application practices and/or the active ingredients are unsafe there is a need to make eff...
