▶️ Fall army 🐛 affect 🌽 production in SSA ▶️ CGIAR/ @CIMMYT developed tolerant 🌽 varieties ▶️ partnerships with NARES & private sector are 🔑 to fast track commercialization ▶️ But does it make business sense? ▶️This is where @CIMMYT economists come in 1/3

Where available, improved varieties are promising as we found in Malawi and Zambia by @CIMMYT scientists here onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/10.1002/fe…

Dear #Maize farmers in Rwanda, Fall armyworm is a serious pest causing up to 50% yield loss in recent seasons(SAS 24). 👉Best control: Early scouting + biological control + targeted pesticide use. Act early, protect your harvest! @RwandaAgriBoard @CABI_Plantwise

It has ended in LR Mwilu, PhD! I navigated poor health, debilitating grief and overall life wreckage for the better part of my study. I fell so far behind and remained with one chance to have my proposal approved or get deregistered. Got it at first (and last) attempt 👆🏽#PhDone
