SIMBA CABI 1.1 | Have you noticed any of these symptoms on your mango trees?
Background
The mango mealybug is a pest affecting fruit crops in Uganda. It has been found to attack mangoes, citrus, guava and bananas. This invasive pest damages trees by feeding on plant sap, leading to reduced fruit production, and excretes a sticky substance called honeydew, which promotes the growth of black sooty mold. The pest poses a serious threat to farmers’ livelihoods, especially those relying on mangoes as a primary cash crop. Effective prevention, early detection, and proper management practices are essential to controlling its spread and minimizing losses in affected regions.
