General policy in locust management in Indonesia. Proposal for a long-term program : Report and recommendations based on a survey conducted in Kalimantan, Sumba and Sumatra from 7-30 july 2000
Since 1998 several islands of Indonesian Archipelago were subject to serious outbreaks of migratory locust, #Locusta migratoria manilensis# (Meyen 1835). To face the situation the French Ministry for foreign affairs furnishes a financial assistance with the technical support of CIRAD experts. A first survey was organised in 1998 to assess the locust situation in Sumatra. In 1999, a training seminar was organised from 12 to 17 July, in Kotabumi, Southern Sumatra (Lampung Province). In 2000, a new mission from 7 to 30 July allow to assess the situation which is still object of concern in West and Central Kalimantan and in Sumba Island. A re-assessment was also performed in South Sumatra and Lampung Provinces. One-day seminars were also organised in Kalimantan (2), Sumba (1), South Sumatra (2) and Java (1). Nearly 400 peoples from all origin (from scientists to farmers) were met during this assignment. Recommendations are made on the short-term prospect, for emergency measures to help operators to overcome outbreaks. On the medium and long term prospect, recommendations are made to set up a general policy in locust management in Indonesia based on IPM principles.
