Achieving food security for one million sub-Saharan African poor through push–pull innovation by 2020 by Zeyaur R. Khan, Charles A. O. Midega, Jimmy O. Pittchar, Alice W. Murage, Michael A.

How the push–pull system works: stemborer moths are repelled by intercrop volatiles while attracted to trap crop volatiles. Zeyaur R. Khan et al. Phil. Trans. R. Soc. B 2014;369: ©2014 by The Royal Society

Push–pull technology adoption has significantly increased because of its multiple benefits. Zeyaur R. Khan et al. Phil. Trans. R. Soc. B 2014;369: ©2014 by The Royal Society

Mean (±s.e.) % stemborer-damaged plants, emerged S. hermonthica per 50 maize plants in each plot and grain yields (t ha−1) of sorghum and maize planted within a climate-adapted push–pull plot or a sole stand in Bondo and Siaya districts of western Kenya.
