A video explaining methods for managing the fall armyworm without the use of chemical pesticides, and the reasons for doing so. It talks about "farmers' friends" - animals that help control pests including fall armyworm. Farmers explain their experience and practices for pest management.
This information may be useful for farmers and those working in agricultural development and research, including in farmer research networks.
This video was produced by AgroInsight in collaboration with farmers and researchers working in East Africa with support of the Collaborative Crop Research Programme of the McKnight Foundation.
