description Fall armyworm has become an endemic pest across Africa and Asia. International efforts enabled monitoring and surveillance and dissemination of sustainable and affordable Integrated Pest Management and breeding-based solutions. Control strategies that combined intercropping, crop rotation and adjusting planting/harvesting dates have proved promising. Within 2 years, CIMMYT made available FAW-tolerant hybrids for sub-Saharan Africa (SSA). In 2021, National Agricultural Research System (NARS) partners started national performance trials. In Asia, smallholder extension efforts in Bangladesh reached 187,000 farmers during 2020-2021.
