Farmers in #SouthernAfrica face floods, drought and now the #FallArmyworm as well. In Zambia & Malawi, FAW cuts maize yields by up to 30%, threatening #FoodSecurity. In response #CIMMYT developed FAW-tolerant maize – less damage, more resilience. 🌽✨

Crops under threat from fall armyworm: maize, sugarcane, sorghum, rice, cereals, legumes, industrial crops, vegetables

Fall armyworm feeds on over 350 plant species, and maize is top of the list.

It also attacks other staple crops, putting food security at risk.

Knowing what it targets helps you spot infestations early!
