罗马 -秋粘虫是一种贪婪的入侵性害虫，正在对非洲、亚洲和近东地区的农作物造成破坏，我们拥有能够对抗秋粘虫的工具，但必须加强协调，以遏制虫害的传播。 "我们需要加强来自全球所有相关部门的关键合作伙伴之间的合作"，粮农组织总干事屈冬玉在今日召开的全球秋粘虫控制行动指导委员会第一次会议的开幕致辞中表示。 秋粘虫（拉丁名：Spodoptera frugiperda）是一种美洲蛾，最近几年已传播至非洲、近东和亚洲，如今澳大利亚也出现了它们的身影。秋粘虫的幼虫以80多种作物为食，尤其喜欢玉米。如今，非洲每年因秋粘虫损失多达1800万吨玉米，这足以养活几千万人，造成的经济损失高达46亿美元。 在过去三年中，粮农组织牵头开展了63个与秋粘虫有关的项目，这些项目大多在非洲实施，期间形成了许多良好做法，积累了许多宝贵知识。当前的全球控制行动旨在通过强有力的创新协调机制来支持和扩大这些努力。 "如果秋粘虫继续扩散，那么玉米在世界粮食系统中的作用将受到严重影响，总干事指出。"我们需要迅速采取行动。"
