Au total, cinq millions de Quelea Quelea, petits oiseaux \u00e0 bec rouge, ont \u00e9t\u00e9 extermin\u00e9s en Tanzanie pour prot\u00e9ger les rizi\u00e8res, notamment \u00e0 l’aide de drones, a annonc\u00e9 mercredi l’agence nationale de surveillance des plantes et des pesticides.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
L’Autorit\u00e9 tanzanienne de protection des v\u00e9g\u00e9taux et des pesticides (TPHPA) a tu\u00e9 cinq millions d’oiseaux la semaine derni\u00e8re dans la r\u00e9gion de Manyara, au nord du pays, o\u00f9 plus de 400 hectares de cultures commerciales \u00e9taient menac\u00e9s.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\u00ab\u00a0Nous avons tu\u00e9 cinq millions d’oiseaux destructeurs et surveillons d\u00e9sormais d’autres zones\u00a0\u00bb, a d\u00e9clar\u00e9 \u00e0 l’AFP Joseph Ndunguru, directeur g\u00e9n\u00e9ral de la TPHPA.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Quelea Quelea, ou ouvri\u00e8res \u00e0 bec rouge, qui voyagent en grands troupeaux, a par le pass\u00e9 fait des ravages dans les cultures en Afrique, les invasions se produisant g\u00e9n\u00e9ralement au d\u00e9but de la saison s\u00e8che en septembre et octobre.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
M. Ndunguru a d\u00e9clar\u00e9 que l’agence avait cibl\u00e9 les essaims avec des pulv\u00e9risations a\u00e9riennes, y compris des drones, sur une p\u00e9riode de quatre jours, les tuant avant d’endommager les rizi\u00e8res du nord de la Tanzanie.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Selon la TPHPA, les oiseaux sont capables de d\u00e9truire plus de 50 tonnes de cultures vivri\u00e8res en une seule journ\u00e9e.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
En 2013, l’Ouganda a extermin\u00e9 1,8 million de Quelea Quelea, \u00e9galement pour prot\u00e9ger les rizi\u00e8res, provoquant l’ire des \u00e9cologistes.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
