Exceptional outbreaks of the oriental migratory locust in Indonesia: towards an integrated pest management strategy. Report and recommendations based on a survey conducted in Southern Sumatra, 19th June - 2nd July 1998
Serious outbreaks of oriental migratory locusts, Locusta migratoria manilensis (Meyen 1835), have been reported on different islands of the lndonesian archipelago since early 1998, especially in southern Sumatra. ln the long term, the intensive deforestation that has been under way over the last 20 years is certainly partially responsible for these outbreaks. The drought that prevailed in the region in 1997 also seems to be a major recent factor that prompted these outbreaks. Recommendations are put forward to improve the efficiency of control treatments and set the stage for collecting essential baseline information required to develop a long-term preventive locust contrai strategy based on integrated pest management principles.
