We all know china has a problem with swine deaths

China has admitted to 1 million hogs slaughterd to try and control the disese

Some estimate 2 million hogs have been affected which may be more than all of USA production [Somebody should check my numbers as I am repeating an AG Article]

Now it seems that china is hard hit by army worm

The reason this is so problamatic is Africa got hit by army worm and in three yrs 96% of the country was infested

Neighbouring countries such as India have army worm plus other Asian countries, which is a large part of the world population

China is very  concerned as army worm affects a wide range of food crops, rice, corn wheat beans etc

I m not sure if there is a good control measure for army worm

China may have a developing problem with their food supply, if both hogs and crops have serious problems

China may have long term problems whilst our crops may be just one yr. We hope

Just a heads up for your info
