Abstract

Magor, J.I., Lecoq, M., Hunter, D.M. [2008. Preventive control and desert locust plagues. Crop Protection 27, 1527–1533, doi:10.1016/j.cropro.2008.08.006], claim that their version of a desert locust preventive control programme has caused plagues to be rarer, shorter and geographically more limited, but without producing any evidence of control campaign success. There are many reasons why success is unlikely, some of which they admit. Their “model” does not support the case; it has sundry flaws and is not consistent with actual events.
