Neuenschwander, P.Langewald, J.Borgemeister, C.James, B.[Biological control for increased agricultural productivity, poverty reduction and environmental protection in Africa]Biological control for increased agricultural productivity, poverty reduction and environmental protection in Africa

1 Effective biological pesticides based on oil formulation of deuteromycete fungal spores have been developed for use against locusts and grasshoppers. The isolate IMI 330189 of Metarhizium anisopliae (¯avoviride) var. acridum has been registered, extensively ®eld tested and its operating charact...


Lomer, C.J.Bateman, R.P.Dent, D.Groote, H. deDouro-Kpindou, O.K.Kooyman, C.Langewald, J.Johnson, D.L.Peveling, R.Thomas, M.B.[Development of strategies for the incorporation of microbial pesticides into the integrated management of migratory pests]Development of strategies for the incorporation of microbial pesticides into the integrated management of migratory pests

A field trial was conducted to investigate the efficacy of an oil formulation of the fungal entomopathogen, Metarhizium flavoviride, for control of the variegated grasshopper, Zonocerus variegatus. The results of the trial showed a significant reduction in grasshopper populations following spray ...

Farmers of two villages in Mono province, Benin, in collaboration with researchers of the biological control of locusts and grasshoppers program (LUBILOSA) at IITA, developed a use and marketing strategy for the biopesticide Green Muscle, an oil-based formulation of the entomopathogenic fungus Me...

The prospects for development of microbial control in West Africa are bright, with many stakeholders in plant protection both within and beyond the region becoming increasingly interested. To date however, on the West African market, there are only two microbial products available, and many oppor...

Thomas, M.B.Wood, S.N.Langewald, J.Lomer, C.[Persistence of biopesticides and consequences for biological control of grasshoppers and locusts]Persistence of biopesticides and consequences for biological control of grasshoppers and locusts

Control of grasshoppers and locusts has traditionally relied on synthetic insecticides, and for emergency situations this is unlikely to change. However, a growing awareness of the environmental issues associated with acridid control as well as the high costs of emergency control are expanding th...
