La chenille légionnaire d'automne est un insecte dont les larves peuvent se nourrir de plus de 80 espèces végétales, dont le maïs, le riz, le sorgho, le millet, la canne à sucre, les cultures potagères et le coton. Plusieurs générations peuvent se succéder en une année, et le papillon peut voler jusqu'à 100 km par nuit avec l'aide du vent. La chenille légionnaire d'automne est un organisme nuisible qui continuera de se propager en raison de ses caractéristiques biologiques et du volume élevé des échanges commerciaux entre les pays africains. Les agriculteurs ont besoin d'une aide substantielle pour gérer de manière durable ce nouveau ravageur dans leurs systèmes de culture grâce à l’utilisation d’options agricoles de lutte intégrée contre les ravageurs. Les champs-écoles des producteurs (CEP) proposent une approche interactive et participative d'apprentissage par la pratique qui place les agriculteurs au premier plan grâce à un apprentissage pratique et basé sur la découverte. Des groupes d'environ 25 à 30 participants ayant des intérêts communs découvrent les pratiques agricoles améliorées grâce à un programme d’options d'essais sélectionnées durant une saison agricole entière. Un facilitateur qualifié anime les sessions d'apprentissage hebdomadaires et guide les participants à travers des observations sur le terrain et des analyses critiques, en se concentrant sur une sélection d’activités réelles. Les CEP s'appuient sur les systèmes de connaissances locaux tout en testant et en validant des concepts scientifiques innovants développés dans d’autres lieux grâce à des expériences menées sur des sites d'étude, afin de comparer les pratiques locales et améliorées. Chaque semaine, les participants observent et surveillent tous les éléments de l'agroécosystème à la ferme ou sur le terrain, et apprennent à prendre des décisions de gestion adaptées aux défis auxquels ils sont confrontés. Grâce aux programmes de CEP portant sur la chenille légionnaire d'automne en Afrique, plusieurs options de contrôle mécanique et biologique et de lutte contre la chenille légionnaire d'automne ont été testées et évaluées par les agriculteurs, et nombre d’entre elles ont montré des résultats prometteurs.

Le maïs, l'un des aliments de base de la population togolaise, fait face ces dernières années à une invasion de la chenille légionnaire d’automne, Spodoptera frugiperda, particulièrement dévastatrice. Dans le but de renforcer les capacités des différents acteurs de la production agricole afin de lutter efficacement et de façon durable contre l’invasion de la chenille légionnaire d’automne au Togo, le présent guide a été élaboré. Ce document technique retrace l’origine et la distribution de ce ravageur émergent en Afrique, illustre ses traits caractéristiques morphologiques de reconnaissance et de différentiation par rapport aux autres lépidoptères communément décrits dans le système céréalier et aussi ses dégâts particuliers.

Protected areas are at the base of the most national and international conservation strategies. Due to the many unpredictable elements in ecology matters, each protected area requires a case-specific set of guidelines but a common issue is how to cope with human interaction. The management of protected areas is replete with challenges and the only way to gain understanding and achieve greater management possibilities is to exchange experiences and knowledge. Environmental managers are aware of that and together with scientists are looking for more modern and better solutions, both with respect to natural resources and human interactions in many issues regarding nature protection. This publication presents reviews and research results on protected areas management, as well as 12 case studies derived from around the world with the aim of improving management effectiveness of the protected areas.

The land reform carried out in Japan during the period of American Occupation is often spoken of as one of the most successful of the post-war reforms. It was certainly one of the most thorough going redistributions of land which the world has seen. A third of the total area of arable land changed hands, and nearly a third of the total population of the country was affected. Socially, the land reform accelerated the decay in feudal institutions, rendering the lot of the Japanese farmer considerably better than it once was. First published in 1984, this title is part of the Bloomsbury Academic Collections series.

This paper shows that deindustrialization is explained primarily by trends internal to the advanced economies. These include the combined effects on manufacturing employment of a relatively faster growth of productivity in manufacturing, the associated relative price changes, and shifts in the structure of demand between manufactures and services. North-South trade explains less than one fifth of deindustrialization in the advanced economies. Moreover, the contribution of North-South trade to deindustrialization has been mainly through its effects in stimulating labor productivity in Northern manufacturing. It has had little enduring effect on total manufacturing output in the advanced economies.

In this book, Takeo Hoshi and Anil Kashyap examine the history of the Japanese financial system, from its nineteenth-century beginnings through the collapse of the 1990s that concluded with sweeping reforms. Combining financial theory with new data and original case studies, they show why the Japanese financial system developed as it did and how its history affects its ongoing evolution. The authors describe four major periods within Japan's financial history and speculate on the fifth, into which Japan is now moving. Throughout, they focus on four questions: How do households hold their savings? How is business financing provided? What range of services do banks provide? And what is the nature and extent of bank involvement in the management of firms? The answers provide a framework for analyzing the history of the past 150 years, as well as implications of the just-completed reforms known as the "Japanese Big Bang." Hoshi and Kashyap show that the largely successful era of bank dominance in postwar Japan is over, largely because deregulation has exposed the banks to competition from capital markets and foreign competitors. The banks are destined to shrink as households change their savings patterns and their customers continue to migrate to new funding sources. Securities markets are set to re-emerge as central to corporate finance and governance.

"The Ladybird is a long tale or novella by D. H. Lawrence. It was first drafted in 1915 as a short story entitled The Thimble. Lawrence rewrote and extended it under a new title in December 1921 and sent the final version to his English agent on 9 January 1922. It was collected with two other tales, The Captain's Doll and The Fox, and the three novellas were then published in London by Martin Secker in March 1923 under the title The Ladybird and in New York by Thomas Seltzer as The Captain's Doll in April 1923."
