Notes
Mulegata Seyoum, Gondar, Ethiopia: 'I would like to comment on Dr Tsedeke Abate's statement at the CTA seminar about tef pest attack as indicated on page 4 of May-June Spore edition. Tef is attacked and highly infested by grasshoppers, red tef worm, African bollworm, army worm, sorghum shoot fly, and other pests in our region, whether a farmer cultivates varieties of tef in a rotating manner or not. Great production losses are caused on tef year to Year by these pests. It is not clear as to how the researcher Dr Tsedeke Abate advocates to the CTA audience 'Tef is remarkably free of pests in Ethiopia.'
