Farmers fear they may lose their crops if authorities do not intervene and combat the threat. Speaking to Radio Dabanga, one of the farmers noted he is particularly concerned about his millet crops, which are currently maturing.  He appealed to authorities to  “expedite their intervention and combat this scourge of locusts" so that "the farmers' invested energy and money will not go to waste.” File photo FAO Related: Locust threat terrorizing northern Sudan–UN (4 April 2013)https://www.dabangasudan.org/wp-content/uploads/2022/11/cropped-dabanga-logo-zondernaam-512x512-1.png512512
