ProjectProject for Improvement of Locust Management in Caucasus and Central Asia (CCA) (Phase 2) GCP/INT/384/JCA
PROJECT DOCUMENT
2020Also available in:
Afghanistan, Kazakhstan, Kyrgyzstan, Tajikistan, Turkmenistan and Uzbekistan are regularly afflicted by three locust pests, the Italian Locust, the Migratory Locust and the Moroccan Locust. During outbreaks, these locust pests attack crops and rangelands and cause severe damage, thus jeopardizing food security, economy and livelihoods of the rural populations. In this context, the Project for Improvement of Locust Management (Phase 2) was signed in late July 2020 between FAO and the Japan International Cooperation Agency (JICA) to the benefit of the six Central Asian countries. This five-year project is expected to provide substantial support for improving locust management through regional cooperation and strengthening of technical capacities on a wide range of topics. While the immediate beneficiaries are the national services in charge of locust management, the ultimate beneficiaries of the assistance will be the rural populations living in the locust-affected. The project is part of the multi-funded and interregional FAO “Programme to improve national and regional locust management in Caucasus and Central Asia”. This document includes the project executive summary with a view of posting it on the FAO website “Locust Watch in CCA”, where the summaries of other projects contributing to the overall Programme are seemingly available. -

Brochure, flyer, fact-sheetProject for Improvement of Locust Management (Phase 2) 2021
Also available in:
Locusts and grasshoppers are serious threats to agriculture in the Caucasus and Central Asia (CCA). Three locust pests, the Italian (CIT), the Moroccan (DMA) and the Migratory (LMI) locusts, jeopardize food security and livelihoods in both regions as well as in adjacent areas of northern Afghanistan and the southern Russian Federation. Over 25 million hectares of cultivated areas are potentially at risk. Most of the affected countries in the Caucasus and Central Asia region still have insufficient resources for locust monitoring and control operations, including shortage of experienced staff and up-to-date monitoring, communication, positioning and control equipment and techniques. In 2020, the “Project for Improvement of Locust Management (Phase 2)” (GCP/INT/384/JCA) has been approved to the benefit of six Central Asian countries, namely Afghanistan, Kazakhstan, Kyrgyzstan, Tajikistan, Turkmenistan and Uzbekistan.Project overall objective is to contribute to food security and livelihoods of the rural populations in Central Asia by preventing and limiting the threats of damage to crops and rangelands posed by locusts, in the respect of human health and the environment. This project builds up on previously Japan/JICA-funded project on locusts in Central Asia, successfully implemented in three countries (Afghanistan, Kyrgyzstan and Tajikistan) between 2015 and 2019. Phase 2 thus represents a continuation and expansion of the previous one, including three additional countries (Kazakhstan, Turkmenistan and Uzbekistan). -
