hello
Both America and Kenya have a high level of possible crop damage by insects. America is able to afford insecticides and the research to go with it, to control the pests. In Kenya farmers rotate their crops as much as possible (not always possible) and this helps in reducing the risk of pests. Also Kenyan farmers often grow rice in adjacent fields with sweet potatoes; this has reduced the weevil infestation level in sweet potatoes. The same technique can be used using sweet potato, intercropped with millet and sesame.
Have a nice day
