Soil amendments decreased locust abundance (A, B) and damage (C, D), and increased millet yield (E, F). The left column shows raw individual data points. Grey points are a pre-treatment survey, followed by survey 2 and survey 3, all of which recorded insect abundance and damage in control and treated fields. Black points are control fields and green points are fertilized fields. The initial survey (pretreatment survey 1) was completed before the fertilizer treatment was initiated, the second survey was carried out after the initial 1–2 fertilizer doses were applied, and the third survey was completed after all fertilizer doses had been completed. Yield was measured once, during the single harvest season in autumn. The right column shows the estimated marginal means and standard error for all surveys post treatment. The statistical tables and additional visualizations of these data are in the Supplementary Information: abundance (Table S1, Figs. S1, S2, and S3), damage (Table S2), yield (Table S3).
