Desert Locust Monitoring in Somalia and Saudi Arabia in 2024/2(Spatial resolution-500m)
In February 2024, rainfall decreased in the northwestern region of Somalia, which was unfavorable for the breeding and reproduction of desert locusts. As a result, the number of desert locusts in that area decreased. The monitoring results showed that in February, the total damaged vegetation area was 13.6 thousand hectares in Somalia, including 5.5 thousand hectares of grassland and 8.1 thousand hectares of shrub (Figure 1), accounting for 0.02% and 0.04% of the total area of the grassland and shrub, respectively.
