Mhm.

The edge of five or six had quite a big swarm of Locusts arrive on the farm.

It was quite incredible to see how they went to work.

Thio decimate the field within 30 to 40 minutes.

My name is Robert Salvi.

We've been farming as a family for five generations.

It's currently we experiencing one of the biggest swarms in the last decade.

Every week we're planting a new block.

We obviously do fear the Locusts coming the next day to eat them up.

I've got 150 actors off crop that we need to protect.

If we do see something, we must try and scare them off our fields.

Your animals will die of hunger.

It will be devastating.

It is anyway devastating for any former to lose his animals.

I'm Christopher Millon.

I'm a farmer in the Middleburg Eastern Type district, a farm with mostly with cattle and sheep or, well, well, basically finished the swarms through the night so we won't leave a farm.

Our swarm that's not fully straight and finished really A soon as we see them, teams are always ready.

It's always teams understand by to be called on they within an hour there on site.

I'm gonna come around my masters.

We were a team of four tonight with pucky sprayers.

First of all, you have to look at the wind direction because of the drift off the insecticide.

You always want to have the spray drift over the locust.

We drive 25 m support and then you just have your beacons because of the dark.

You can't judge at night.

So the Bacons is just there for us to drive in a straight line.

We winning.

The battle is struggling.

The terrain is extremely difficult.

Way we are.

So most of them were killed.

It's just these large swarms that coming?

Yeah, of course it's It's tiring.

Last night was the first night in seven weeks.

I had supper with my kids and my wife, so that was quite nice.

These no motivation, just just a service to the community.

We actually do as a former.

We tend to be resilient in that we form with the elements and we have many challenges.

So this is just another challenge for us to overcome.
