Desert Locust Monitoring in Eritrea, Saudi Arabia and Yemen in 2024/6(Spatial resolution-500m)
In June 2024, desert locusts were primarily found in the western inland regions of Eritrea, where abundant rainfall fostered robust vegetation growth. These favorable conditions facilitated the egg-laying and reproduction of desert locusts, leading to a further increase in their population. The monitoring results showed that in June, the total damaged vegetation area in Eritrea was 10.1 thousand hectares, including 4.6 thousand hectares of grassland and 5.5 thousand hectares of shrub (Figure 1), accounting for 0.09% and 0.42% of the total area of grassland and shrub, respectively. Gash Barka experienced the most extensive impact, with 7.7 thousand hectares of vegetation affected, followed by Anseba, with 1.4 thousand hectares. Additionally, Semien Keih Bahri had 1.0 thousand hectares affected.
