Precipitation predictions
FAO's Desert Locust Information Service (DLIS) produces maps indicating the perceived risk or threat that current Desert Locust infestations pose to agriculture. The maps are updated as the risk changes. They are based on the colour-coded risk levels used in Locust Watch and on the monthly Desert Locust bulletins:
Calm (green):
- no threat to crops
- maintain regular surveys
Caution (yellow):
- potential threat to crops
- increased vigilance is required
- control operations may be needed
Threat (orange):
- threat to crops
- survey and control operations must be undertaken
Danger (red):
- significant threat to crops
- intensive survey and control operations must be undertaken
