 Farmers must be part and parcel of the seeking of solutions right from the beginning and from our experience, when we have involved them in conducting validation studies through farm and field school groups, they have actually been part of the process from the beginning, they have seen the benefits as they learn by doing and it's very easy for them to understand the benefits of the various technologies that they have been validating. Farmers have been validating a wide range of botanical extracts, most of them locally sourced, locally processed. These have been very effective in suppressing farm infestations and protecting the crop and food. We have also learned that effective suppression means that technologies must be available at the farmers' level and the results have shown that this is the way forward.

Ful armyworm presence in Malawi was confirmed during the 2016-2017 rain-fed growing season and since then outbreaks recur perennili, causing crop damage. FAO is supporting programs which are helping small holder farmer communities to diversify their livelihoods and accumulate household assets using transformative community-centered approaches. Assistance is also being provided to achieve increased agricultural production and productivity, reduced post harvest losses, strengthened inclusive value chains, an increased diversification, income stability and household asset base. Significant investments have been made to understand bio-ecological adaptation of Ful armyworm and to validate and generate components of an effective and sustainable integrated pest management strategy for its management on small holder farms.
