dc.description.abstractThis Brief assesses the socioeconomic and environmental impacts of the Red Palm Weevil (RPW) across MENA, emphasizing threats to date palm production, livelihoods, and ecosystems. It quantifies losses from yield declines, palm mortality, and higher control costs, while highlighting trade disruptions that hit smallholders. The brief underscores environmental risks from heavy pesticide use and genetic erosion, advocating sustainable IPM with early detection, stronger quarantine, and regional coordination. It proposes a framework to boost resilience and reduce long-term RPW impacts in MENA date palm systems.en_US
