本文首先概述了国内外蝗虫发生与为害的态势，总结了现阶段我国蝗虫发生与为害的主要特点：即农田飞蝗暴发频繁而且严重，草原土蝗的发生时常造成严重的经济损失，而且侵入城市干扰市民生活，我国与周边国家之间蝗虫过境迁移频繁，使用化学农药污染环境和农产品；分析了国内外蝗虫防治对策与技术的发展现状，重点介绍了应急防治和可持续治理对策、生物防治技术、生态治理技术、信息技术、化学防治技术和施药技术等方面的进展；提出了我国蝗害绿色防控技术体系的主要内容、技术和目标；介绍了国家农业行业科研专项“我国迁移性蝗害绿色防控技术研究与示范”的主要目标和任务，预计通过此项目的实施，将促进我国蝗灾可持续治理水平的提高。
 

       Features of the occurrence of locusts and grasshoppers in China and other countries are summarized. In China, locust outbreaks are frequent in crop fields, and grasshoppers occur widely and often migrate into cities and between the borders of China and adjacent countries. The use of large quantities of chemical      pesticides to control locusts causes severe pollution to the environment and crops. Global progress in strategies and tactics of locust and grasshopper management is reviewed, including biological control, ecological control, chemical control and the application of information technology in the sustainable management of locusts and grasshoppers. Finally, the main tasks and objectives of a project supported by Special Fund for Agroscientific Research in the Public Interest “Sustainable Management System of Migratory Locusts and Grasshoppers” are introduced. We hope that this project may improve the ability to control locust and grasshopper plagues in our country. Future locust and grasshopper management should be supported by good facilities, sufficient finance and qualified staff, as well as integrated biological control, information system support and ecological control.
