"content": "Mr. Speaker, Sir, the Ministry is taking cognisance of this problem, which recurs over and over again, particularly after dry spells. It has initiated a pilot project for control of army worms in Machakos, whose results we, in the long run, expect to replicate in other areas. But more importantly, the Ministry has also instituted corrective mechanisms, through a system of forecasts in various areas of the country. Therefore, we have stations spread across the country to detect moths. We have also established moth traps to try and deal with this problem. But this is a problem that recurs after a long dry period. The Ministry, through consultation and assistance from the Desert Locust Control Organisation, is trying to put in place mechanisms to see whether we can detect this problem before it arises and causes harm in this district."
