| This video sets out the UN Food and Agriculture Organization’s coordinated efforts to combat the
locusts which threatened wheat-growing areas in Northern Afghanistan, an area known as
the bread-basket of the war-torn country. This threat was probably the worst to hit Afghanistan in the last 30 years.
This video is of special interest to rural development specialists.
