Abstract
THE outbreak of locusts which began in the Sudan, Algeria and western Asia in 1926 and reached Kenya two years later, increased in intensity so greatly that it exceeded the powers of local checks and expanded rapidly into an enormous, widespread plague, ranging from Bechuanaland into Persia, India and Turkestan. It is estimated that the damage this caused between 1927 and 1931 exceeds £6,000,000.
