Pakistan suffers from locust plague, will the agricultural market fall into a downturn?

The agricultural market is bound to fall into a downturn, because the yellow disaster that Pakistan suffered this time was very extensive and lasted for a long time, and caused serious losses to local agriculture. In addition, due to the current epidemic situation, it will take a long time for Pakistan's agricultural market to recover to its previous level.

The scope of this plague of locusts can be said to have passed through Europe and Asia, and now it has arrived in Pakistan and India. At present, the number of locusts has increased by 5 times compared with the previous June. These locusts can move 15 kilometers every day to know how big the affected area is, and they can eat 35, people's food in one day. If it is not eliminated as soon as possible, all the food in Pakistan will definitely run out, and even people can't feed it.

This locust plague can definitely be described as tragic, especially in East Africa. Such a large area of locusts is very difficult to eliminate, because every time they talk, the number of locusts may be doubled, and now it is summer, which has established a good reproductive environment for locust reproduction.

Since February, swarms of locusts have attacked India, causing 37, hectares of farmland in India to be destroyed, which directly caused India's economy to lose tens of billions of rupees. In addition to the current epidemic, India's economy was once sluggish, but the worst thing was actually Pakistan, because it was not only attacked by African locusts, but also by Iranian locusts. It can be said that it was attacked from both sides. This has caused this country to suffer from a rare locust plague in the past 27 years. If this situation continues to develop, then the country will have no food to harvest. Even if the country has food stocks before, it can't resist for long, so it is necessary to eliminate this locust as soon as possible.

But at present, angels are still on the side of locusts, because the current climate is very conducive to the reproduction of locusts. You know, with each generation of locusts, the number of locusts can be increased by 2 times. Once unchecked, the number will increase exponentially. In addition, after one area is eaten up by locusts, it will move to another area, so the whole world may be affected by this locust epidemic. Now all countries in East Africa have formed a state of emergency, and farmers are already facing the risk of food shortage. So now many countries hope to carry out a wave of anti-virus plans before locusts multiply again, so as to curb the growth of locust swarms.
