Comments:
A Desert Locust infestation has been ravaging crop and pasture-land, as well as trees and other vegetation, since June 2019 in parts of Afar, Amhara, Somali and Tigray regions. The swarms have produced hopper bands that have covered more than 174 square kilometers (in 56 woredas and 1085 kebeles) and are consuming approximately 8,700 metric tons of green vegetation every day.
