 Kenya, our country is highly dependent on agriculture. When the locust's innovation came to this country, it was a menace. Their food is pasture and the crops that our countries depend on. I came to be the officer in charge of the servicemen who were selected to go for the desert locust control. Since these desert locusts menace came into our country, the national service has been in the forefront and the delivery has been so well. When a family goes to the farm and what they had found has been eaten up by the desert locusts, this means there is going to be hunger. If the grass that they depend on for their cattle, sheep and goats has been taken or eaten away by the desert locusts, this means there will be reduction of the meat and the milk that these pastoral communities depend on. We were trained on how to gather information on their behavior, on their movement and how to even fight them. We live for the operation at around 5.30 so that we can reach the fields when the sun has not heated up. On reaching the field we have to know the specific swamps that are there. How large the swamps are, which swamps to target first, any information that we get on the ground. We put it down in the application and we forward it to the center command control center that is with FAO. If the national service didn't go outside there, the kind of destruction that we would have experienced would have been vast.
