Cooler than usual and rainy weather conditions in all Caucasian and Central Asian countries delayed hatching and subsequent hopper development. Therefore Moroccan Locust (DMA) started from late March in Tajikistan -and probably in neighboring areas of Afghanistan and Turkmenistan- and in April in Georgia, Kazakhstan, and Uzbekistan –and probably in Kyrgyzstan. More than 64 000 ha were treated in April in Tajikistan and Uzbekistan. In May, DMA hatching and hopper development will continue in all above-mentioned countries as well as in Azerbaijan, followed by fledging before the end of the forecast period. Italian Locust (CIT) and Migratory Locust (LMI) hatching should occur in May.
