Coinciding with the celebration of International Day of Plant Health on May 12, CGIAR will launch its Plant Health and Rapid Response to Protect Food Security and Livelihoods initiative, aimed at protecting agriculture-based economies of low- and middle-income countries in Africa, Asia and Latin America from devastating pest incursions and disease outbreaks by leveraging and building viable networks across an array of national, regional and global institutions.
This social media toolkit serves as a guide to help you and your organization drive online conversations about #CGIARforPlantHealth on your social media channels.

Big Data has a big role to play in helping improve plant health 🌱 in future generations.
Healthier plants = larger yields = less hunger and malnutrition.

Fall armyworm is already affecting food security and #planthealth in over 70 countries worldwide 🌎.
We must stop its spread to avoid devastating crop loss and rising food insecurity.

Effective plant health 🌱 management is critical for improving the productivity, sustainability and resilience of agrifood systems and for realizing genetic gains from improved varieties.
Yet, smallholder farming communities continue to struggle against an array of pest and disease incursions/outbreaks.
Each year, crop pests and diseases cost the global 🌎 economy US$220 billion due to lost crops. These losses also severely impact food and nutrition security, thus hampering realization of several Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs).
