VOICED : Tunisia fights palm killing bugs threatening its dates

The video discusses the red palm Weevil, a small but potent insect from Asia, which has infected many trees in Tunis. To combat this, trees are treated with chemicals and monitored to prevent the Weevil from spreading to southern date-producing regions. Tunisia's date production is economically significant, generating €200 million annually. Despite the Weevil's presence since 2011, authorities are confident in their control measures, including pheromone traps, to protect the agricultural sector.
