Heuschrecken fallen bei Mururani und Grootfontein ein

Claudia Reiter
Nachdem sich Heuschrecken (Red Locusts) im Februar in der Sambesi-Region ausgebreitet hatten und die Regierung versucht hatte, die Plage einzudämmen, sind die Insekten nun zurückgekehrt. „Die Schädlinge können weite Distanzen zurücklegen und dringen immer wieder aus dem Ausland ein“, erklärte das Landwirtschaftsministerium gestern schriftlich. „Seit dem 16. Juni wurden die Heuschrecken auch in der Otjozondjupa-Region entdeckt, vor allem in der Gegend von Grootfontein und Mururani.“ Dem Ministerium zufolge stellen die Insekten eine große Gefahr für Wintergetreide wie Weizen und Gerste dar. „Daher haben wir ein Team losgeschickt, um die betroffenen Gebiete zu besprühen“, kündigten die Behörden gestern in Windhoek an. Farmer und Landwirte werden aufgerufen, Schwärme von Heuschrekken sofort zu melden.
