Today, 78 countries in Africa, the Near East, Asia and the Pacific are reporting it.&nbsp;<a href=\"https:\/\/www.africa-newsroom.com\/press\/countlinks\/201273\/https:%7D%7Dcabiagbio.biomedcentral.com%7Darticles%7D10.1186%7Ds43170-021-00038-7%2520\/website\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">In Africa alone, fall armyworm is estimated to cause up to USD 9.4 billion in annual yield losses<\/a>, Qu said.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The spread of fall armyworm is driving intensified pesticide use, putting human and environmental health at risk. In response, the FAO Global Action for Fall Armyworm Control is coordinating comprehensive measures across Africa, the Near East and Asia.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<blockquote class=\"wp-block-quote is-layout-flow wp-block-quote-is-layout-flow\" id=\"press-quote\"><p>Fall armyworm knows no boundaries and is continuing its rapid march across the globe<\/p><\/blockquote>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\"><li class=\"first\">A functional coordination mechanism has been established across global, regional, national and farmer-field levels.<\/li><li>Integrated Pest Management (IPM) tactics have been tested in eight geo-zones with good results.<\/li><li>Maize hybrids tolerant to fall armyworm are now available from the International Wheat and Maize Improvement Center (CIMMYT)&nbsp;for testing and release in African countries.<\/li><li class=\"last\">Training efforts, in collaboration with government partners, have reached over 140&nbsp;000 participants, mostly farmers and agricultural outreach workers.<\/li><\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Reports on impact promising<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Reports on the impact of these measures are promising. In Burkina Faso, yield losses caused by fall armyworm are reported to be consistently at or below 5 percent since 2020, and&nbsp;biopesticides and biological control have shown up to 90 percent field efficacy against the pest.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Despite these achievements, there are still challenges to be addressed. The pest continues to spread, exposing new farmers and their livelihoods; large-scale gatherings and trainings are still &nbsp;being impeded by COVID-19; IPM adoption and yield loss reduction is uneven from country to country; and use of hazardous pesticides persists.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>In response, an extension of the timeline for the Global Action&nbsp;to the end of 2023 has been approved.&nbsp;The&nbsp;extension will enable increased&nbsp;dissemination of IPM technologies, and by increasing the Global Action\u2019s scope, it will tackle multiple pest threats through sustainable plant health management, supporting the One Health Initiative.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>FAO launched the Global Action for Fall Armyworm Control (2019-2022) in December 2019 as an urgent response to the rapid spread of fall armyworm.&nbsp;<a href=\"https:\/\/www.africa-newsroom.com\/press\/countlinks\/201273\/https:%7D%7Dwww.fao.org%7Dfall-armyworm%7Den%7D\/website\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">The initiative complements ongoing FAO activities on fall armyworm.<\/a>&nbsp;The Global Action has established a coordination mechanism enabling open and collaborative dialogue for science-based solutions, supports the establishment of National Task Forces on fall armyworm control, and helps mobilize resources for applied research&nbsp;and technical outreach.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><em>Distributed by APO Group on behalf of Food and Agriculture Organization (FAO).<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong><a rel=\"noreferrer noopener\"
