Esinye sezona zinambuzane zitshabalalisa iziqhamo kunye nemifuno eMexico iye yatshatyalaliswa kwilizwe laseColima, ngokutsho kwe-International Atomic Energy Agency (IAEA).
Ngokusebenzisana IAEA kunye noMbutho woKutya nezoLimo (FAO), izazinzulu apho zakwazi ukusebenzisa iUN-based nuclear-based sterile insect technique (SIT) ukuphelisa i-medfly, eyaziwa ngokuba yifight fly.
Ukubeka emngciphekweni ubomi babalimi
Ukuqhambuka kweColima, kwafunyaniswa ngo-Epreli ka-2021 kwelona zibuko likhulu, iManzanillo, kubeka umngcipheko kwangoko kwizityalo, kubandakanya iigwava, iimango, ipapaya kunye neeorenji.
Ukuba ayilawulwa ngokukhawuleza, IMexico - umvelisi wesixhenxe ngobukhulu kwihlabathi kunye nomthengisi weziqhamo ezitsha kunye nemifuno - ibinokujongana nezithintelo zokuvalelwa kwabantu ezibekelwe ilizwe ngaphandle kwesi sitshabalalisi..
Ibiya kuba sisibetho esibalulekileyo ekurhwebeni kulo lonke icandelo, elenza ngaphezulu kwe-8.8 yeebhiliyoni zeedola, okanye ngaphezulu kweebhiliyoni zeedola ezisisi-9.2, ngonyaka ngokuthunyelwa ngaphandle kunye nezigidi zemisebenzi yalapha ekhaya.
Uncedo olulungeleyo
Emva kokufumana isicelo soncedo olungxamisekileyo ngo-Epreli, i-IAEA kunye ne-FAO zakhawuleza zathumela iingcali ukuba zincede ukuseka nokuvavanya indlela i-SIT enokuthi isetyenziswe ngayo.
"Lo ngomnye umzekelo apho i-SIT isetyenziswe ngempumelelo ukukhusela, ukucinezela kunye nokuphelisa izinambuzane ezihlaselayo, igalelo kwihlabathi jikelele kukhuseleko lokutya kunye nokhuseleko," yatsho isazi sezinambuzane ze-FAO/IAEA, uWalther Enkerlin Hoeflich, kubuchule be-arhente ye-athom ye-UN eyenzelwe iLungu. States ngokusebenzisa i IZiko elidityanelweyo le-FAO/IAEA leNyukliya yobuChwephesha kuKutya kunye noLimo.

Ukusondela kwempukane, eyaziwa njengefruitfly.
HLALA impumelelo
Xa i-medfly females zibeka amaqanda kwiziqhamo ezivuthiweyo umgangatho weemveliso unokuchaphazeleka, uwenze angatyiwa kwaye angafanelanga ukuthengiswa.
Ukulawula ukuqhambuka, iMexico yaqulunqa kwaye yasebenzisa isicwangciso senyathelo likaxakeka ngoncedo lweengcali ze-FAO/IAEA, ezinikezelwe nge Inkqubo yentsebenziswano yobuchwephesha ye-IAEA.
Oosonzululwazi bakhuphe ngaphezulu kwe-1,450 yezigidi zeempukane ezingamadoda e-Colima ngendlela ehambelana nokusingqongileyo ye-SIT yokulawula izinambuzane, esebenzisa iradiation ukutshabalalisa izinambuzane.
Xa iinkunzi zikhwelana neemazi zasendle emva kokukhululwa kwazo, akukho nzala yaveliswayo – ekugqibeleni yakhokelela ekutshatyalalisweni kwezinambuzane.
"IMexico ikwazile ukugcina imeko yayo njengelizwe elingenazo iimpukane zeMeditera," utshilo uFrancisco Ramírez y Ramírez, uMlawuli Jikelele weMpilo yeZityalo kwiNkonzo yeSizwe yezeMpilo yezoLimo, uKhuseleko kunye noMgangatho (SENASICA) waseMexico kumsitho wokubhengeza i ukupheliswa kwezinambuzane kwi-State of Colima.
Ilebhu yokuvala inzala
Ngentsebenziswano ne-FAO, indawo yesibini ngobukhulu kwihlabathi yeempukane zeziqhamo zaseMeditera evulwe ekuqaleni kwalo nyaka ngenkxaso ye-IAEA kwilizwe laseMexico laseChiapas kumda osemazantsi-mpuma weGuatemala.
Liyeyesibini ngobukhulu kwihlabathi elinomthamo wemveliso ye ibhiliyoni enye ibhabha ngeveki ukunceda ukugcina ezolimo zeli lizwe zingatshabalalisi.
Ijolise kwimveliso yobuninzi yezinambuzane ezingenazintsholongwane kwaye, kunye ne-El Pino indawo e-Guatemala, inceda ukugcina umqobo wokuthintela okuthintela ukuqaliswa kunye nokusasazeka kwezinambuzane ukuya emantla eGuatemala, eMexico nase-United States.
I-IAEA iya kuqhubeka incedisa kwaye isebenza kunye neMexico ngokusebenzisa iiprojekthi zentsebenziswano kuzwelonke nakwingingqi, nangokusebenzisa kwayo Inkqubo yeSizwe yeFruit Fly, iZiko lokuSebenza le-IAEA.
