Identifying and managing false codling moth in roses in Ethiopia

The horticultural sector is key to Ethiopia’s economy, contributing to foreign exchange revenue and employment. But the rose-cut flower is of significance due to its increasing demand, market growth, and Ethiopia’s ability to dominate production thanks to its favourable conditions. However, the false codling moth, a major pest, is threatening the quality and marketability of rose-cut flowers, jeopardising the growing horticulture industry and Ethiopia’s export markets. And due to its persistent presence, quarantine restrictions are resulting in high costs and lower profits. To address this problem, CABI is seeking to strengthen the capacity of Ethiopian horticulture authorities, associations and member farms to help improve compliance.
