The Dept of Agriculture is keen on Fall Army Worm Pest management initiatives. To deal with the challenge of improving joint action within the community, ICIPE partner stakeholders needed to do a field study and project new tools for improving community collaboration in Subukia.
@NakuruCountyGov through collaborative incentives with stakeholders like @FAOKenya, @kalromkulima and others, has implemented strategies to curb the pest and have been actively involved in training farmers on new technologies, scouting, providing free pesticides and...
...providing farmers with pheromone traps to curb the highly mobile pest.
FAW when undetected causes massive economic damage, but Nakuru County recorded a reduction of up to 15% of FAW in the last year.

To support FAW management initiatives, they sought to examine collaborative efforts they would engage in to promote monitoring of FAW, coordinate spraying, give real time advice and disseminate information through the Nakuru Farmers Call Centre during their mission.
