Iran for their generous guidance, support in making the necessary arrangements and co-ordination for a successful joint survey between the two countries under the prevailing unfavorable circumstances in The team cordially acknowledges Keith Cressman, Secretary, SWAC and Senior Locust Forecasting Officer, FAO Rome, for his personal efforts as well as the FAO Representations in Pakistan and I. R. Iran, for their assistance. The joint survey team also wishes to solicit and thank all those individuals who assisted in the smooth implementation of the survey. 3
6 Conclusions and Recommendations The 2011 Joint Survey results indicate that the Desert Locust situation is important in the Kharan desert of Pakistan and the Jaz Murian Basin in I. R. Iran where good rains fell this spring and one generation of breeding took place. Consequently, locust numbers were increasing in April and May. To address this potentially critical situation, intensive local surveys should be maintained in both areas until the end of June. National teams should undertake the necessary control operations in order to reduce the scale of adult movement towards the summer breeding areas along the Indo-Pakistan border in June and July. For the first time in recent memory, the Pakistani team surveyed the Great Sandy Desert in northwest Baluchistan. The Joint Survey should be continued in 2012, ideally as a joint activity if security permits or as two separate activities similar to what was undertaken this year. 4
7 Desert Locust Joint Survey in the Spring Breeding Areas of Pakistan and I.R. Iran April May 2011 Introduction This is the 17 th consecutive joint survey in the spring breeding areas of Pakistan and I.R. Iran recommended by the Nineteenth Session of the FAO Commission for Controlling the Desert Locust in Southwest Asia (SWAC) in Pakistani and Iranian teams undertook the survey at the time of year when Desert Locusts are most likely to be present and breeding in both countries. In view of security concerns in the survey areas of Baluchistan since 2009, two options for the survey were discussed in the 27 th Session of SWAC held in Islamabad, Pakistan on January 2011: Option A the 2011 joint survey would be undertaken as a routine survey, that is, the joint survey team would consist of locust officers from both countries who will carry out the survey as a single joint team, first in Baluchistan, Pakistan and then in the provinces of Sistan-Baluchistan, Hormozgan and Kerman in I. R. Iran. Option B the 2011 joint survey would be carried out by each survey team separately on its own territory, that is, a Pakistani team would survey Baluchistan, Pakistan and an Iranian team would survey Sistan-Baluchistan, Hormozgan and Kerman provinces in southeast I. R. Iran. At the end of survey, the Pakistani team leader and national locust unit head will visit Zahedan to discuss results, exchange information and to draft joint report with their respective counterparts and the Iranian team. This year, Option B was adopted and the joint survey was carried out simultaneously in both countries from 17 April to 7 May The start of the survey was delayed by two weeks due to a potential conflict with an inter-regional locust workshop. The participants and itinerary of this year's survey are listed in Appendix 1 and Appendix 2 respectively. Survey results for each country, rainfall data and maps are presented in Appendix 3-6. Photos taken during the survey are in Appendix 7. The proposed itineraries for the joint survey in 2012 are shown in Appendix 8. Methodology Two locust experts from Pakistan and three locust experts from I. R. Iran participated in the joint survey (Appendix 1). In addition to the national locust experts from both the countries and on recommendation of FAO Commission for Controlling the Desert Locust in the Central Region (CRC), Mr. Nassor Al-Harthy, Locust Unit Head from Oman, participated for ten days in the survey along the southeastern coastal plains of I.R. Iran from Chabahar to Bandar-e Abbas. As the joint survey team in each country was only half the size of the full joint team in previous years, only two vehicles were used in each country this year. The itinerary was extended in both countries and focused on potential areas for locust presence and breeding (Appendix 2). A total distance of 14,000 km was covered during the survey, of which 6,000 km were in Pakistan and 8,000 km in I.R. Iran. 5
8 The Pakistani team surveyed an estimated area of 12,670 ha with a total of 132 survey stops while the Iranian team covered about 5,610 ha with a total of 98 stops. Both teams used elocust2 during the entire survey to record and transmit field observations to their respective national locust units. At the end of the survey, the team leaders and the national locust unit heads of both countries met in Zahedan, I.R. Iran for three days to discuss the survey results and finalize the joint report. During the meeting and when preparing the draft report, it was noted that some data sent by elocust2 were incomplete and had missing survey stops and/or ecological data. These data were corrected by using the history option in elocust2 and then added with the elocust2mapper application. During this year's survey, it was for the first time that: two teams conducted separate survey operations due to the security situation; the Pakistani team surveyed the western and southern side of the Great Sandy Desert from Nokundi to Washuk via Mashkhel; the Iranian team used GPRS modem to access the Internet during the survey; one locust officer from Oman participated to Iranian side of survey. Results and Discussion Pakistan After a great many years, the team surveyed the western and southern portions of the Great Sandy Desert (GSD) near the Iranian border covering the interior of the desert from Nokundi to Mashkhel, Washuk, Shamsi, and Borko to Kharan. This allowed the team to avoid returning along the same route from Taftan to Nushki in order to reach Kharan. From Nokundi, the team headed south and crossed the Hamum-i-Mashkhel, a vast dry lake of shimmering white barren soil, sun-baked clay and salty marshes with poorly defined tracks, to Qila Ladgasht, a small oasis village about 13 km east of the I.R. Iran border. The team then moved south-southeast along a track on the southern edge of the GSD where there were limited areas of vegetation near Duzab. The team continued east at Wadan Kaur (272628N/631456E) to the oasis of Washuk (2744N/6448E). From Washuk, the team proceeded in a northeasterly direction via Madag to Kharan. The central portion of the GSD, west of Bhakal (2810N/6453E) consists of sand dunes and becomes increasingly uninhabited, remote and inaccessible. Consequently, this area is generally not surveyed for Desert Locusts. During the survey, it was observed that ecological conditions in Nushki and Kharan areas up to Washuk were favourable for locust breeding (Appendix 3). As rain fell recently in these areas, vegetation was green or already green, and the soil was sufficiently moist for egg laying (Appendix 5). Solitary adults and solitary hopper populations were recorded in these areas up to Nag. In some localities of Nushki and Kharan, solitary adults were also seen copulating and laying eggs. No gregarious populations were seen anywhere by the team during the entire course of the survey. Camel herders and shepherds reported to the team that some scattered locust populations were present in Naru desert of Kharan but due to limited time, the team could not visit the locations and confirm the situation. However, the local locust officer at Kharan visited the area on the following day and confirmed the presence of Desert Locust populations. In the sub-coastal areas of Baluchistan from Panjgur to Turbat and along the coast from Jiwani, Gwadar, Pasni, Ormara to Uthal, ecological conditions were not favourable for locust breeding and hence no locust populations were seen in these areas except near Uthal where only two solitary isolated adults were found. No locusts were seen in the Khuzdar area. 6
9 The ecological conditions in Nushki, Kharan and Washuk areas were favourable for locust breeding and some breeding was noted in these areas as mentioned above. The recent rainfall received in these areas will allow ecological conditions to remain suitable and further breeding may take place in the coming month, causing locust numbers to increase in the area. Based on local reports and confirmed by the Locust Officer in Kharan, local infestations that were present in the Naru desert need to be controlled. During the survey, the team leader provided on-the-job training to the field officers posted at various locust outposts along the survey route n Baluchistan. I. R. Iran All surveyed areas were dry with low-density vegetation and were not suitable for locust breeding except in the Jaz Murian Basin where vegetation was green and dense and good rain fell recently (Appendix 5). Low numbers of solitarious adult were observed in the Jaz Murian Basin at Dalgan and Sardgol (Iranshahr), and on the southeast coastal plains near Beris (Chabahar) of Sistan- Baluchistan province and Koh Mobarak (Jask) of Hormozgan province (Appendix 4). Various stages of solitarious hoppers were seen in the Jaz Murian Basin as a result of one generation of local breeding. It is likely that these populations may need to be treated to prevent locust numbers from increasing further. Conclusions and Recommendations Desert Locust The survey results indicate that the Desert Locust situation is important in the Kharan desert of Pakistan and the Jaz Murian Basin in I. R. Iran (Appendix 6). These areas received good rainfall so that ecological conditions were sufficiently favourable to allow one generation of breeding to take place this year in both areas. Consequently, locust numbers were in the process of increasing during April and May. No significant Desert Locust infestations were seen in the remainder of the surveyed areas in both countries, and no further developments are likely. It is recommended that intensive local surveys be carried out in the areas where breeding has occurred this year so that strict vigilance is maintained until June. Both countries should undertake the necessary control operations, especially in the Kharan desert in Pakistan and in the Jaz Murian Basin in I. R. Iran to reduce locust infestations and the possibility of movement towards the summer breeding areas along the Indo-Pakistan border in June and July. Joint survey of 2012 Both teams recommend the following points for the Joint Survey in 2012: 1. The joint survey must be continued next year (Appendix 8); 2. Both countries should try to have a single joint survey as in previous years; 3. In case security conditions do not improve, then Option B used this year should be implemented in 2012; 4. In either case, the three-day meeting should be conducted at end of the survey; 7
10 5. Experts participating in the survey must be experienced and well informed of survey procedures. Likewise, drivers must be familiar with driving in desert areas and in offroad conditions using appropriate vehicles in excellent condition; 6. Each country should organize a national training course on Desert Locust survey before commencing the joint survey; 7. Locust officers participating in the joint survey, at least the team leader, should have a basic understanding and ability to read, write and converse in English; 8. As the Iranian team uses GPRS mobile service to access the Internet during the survey, DPP Pakistan should try to arrange the same facility for future joint surveys; 9. The Pakistani team proposes that the three-day meeting between the team leaders and national locust heads be held in Karachi if this does not represent unnecessarily high travel costs or visa difficulties; otherwise, the meeting should continue to be held in Zahedan, I.R. Iran; 10. In 2009, the Iranian team used software on their laptop (FlyBook) that could be connected to a GPS data logger to show current coordinates and location on custom maps. By using that software, the team could better understand their position in relation to potentially green areas. This software should be developed and made available for both countries and used during the joint survey. 8
