Pour garantir que le large éventail de prestataires de services de vulgarisation agricole offre un service de qualité aux agriculteurs et autres bénéficiaires, le PNEA prévoyait l'élaboration des lignes directrices, y compris un code de conduite éthique pour guider la conduite des prestataires de l'AEAS dans l'exercice de leurs fonctions, et est considéré comme un code de conduite recommandé, auquel des ajouts ou des modifications peuvent être apportés en tant le besoin s'en fait sentir.

Integrated Pest Management (IPM) practices for whitefly in tomato, pepper, chili and eggplant crops in Africa
Whitefly causes problems in many crops in sub-Saharan Africa (Fig.1 & 3). There are two major species of whitefly: Bemisia tabaci and Trialeurodes vaporariorum (Fig. 2). Both damage crops, but B. tabaci is more important as a virus vector while T. vaporariorum is a common problem in greenhouses and higher altitude areas. The viruses spread by whiteflies can severely reduce yields and in extreme cases even kill the crops. If infection occurs at seedling or vegetative stages, farmers can experience up to 100% crop loss.
