Propose integrated strategies for the efficient use of water resources in agriculture to ensure sustainability and productivity.

The Phytobase regional database is a tool developed by the AGRHYMET Regional Centre for monitoring crop pests in the Sahel and West Africa. When the application starts, the home interface shown below provides access to the various system modules (Administration, Data Entry, Data Extraction, etc.).

The fall armyworm (*Spodoptera frugiperda*) is a phytophagous noctuid moth which, since its introduction into Africa, has severely affected maize production, one of the main staple crops in most sub-Saharan countries. Farmers predominantly use insecticides of often questionable quality and in an excessive manner, posing risks to the environment as well as to human and animal health. 

This manual is the third version of the Harmonized Framework methodological guide intended for analysts
to conduct integrated situational analyses (current and projected) of acute food and nutrition insecurity.
 

The Guide explains the different types of services provided or potentially provided by AGRHYMET CCR-AOS, as well as the methods and procedures that technical institutions of the States and other applicants must follow to access them, in accordance with their specific or collective needs, whether immediate or future, and in compliance with environmental and social safeguard standards.

For the 2025 rainy season, average to above-average rainfall totals are expected in the Sahel, with early to normal start dates, late to average end dates, medium to long dry spells in the central areas, and above-average river flows in the main river basins.
