On Wednesday, 29th July 2020, Dr. Temi held consultative discussions with TOP Scientists from International Centre for Instect Physiology and Ecology ( ICIPE), on Sustainable Management of Mango Fruit Fly in Kitui County, the COUNTY DIARY Reports.
The Value chain Specialist in the office of the Governor Charity Ngilu, had fruitful discussions with a high powered team from ICIPE at their offices on sustainable fruitfly management and bees as pollinators.
“Will be sharing more on the next move. However, based on this preliminary meeting.
I can say without any iota of doubt that, the panecia to the ever annoying fruitfly manace on our Mango and other assorted fruits ( especially water melon, tomatoes, and guavas), is available at ICIPE and will be landing in Kitui County very, very soon”, Dr Temi added.
