Dear Bastiaan (and co-authors),

I have not read this yet but I am looking forward to doing so.  These are so
few estimates of losses caused by rodents we desperately need a good paper
on this.  I am sure it will become one of the most widely quoted in the
rodent literature!

Regards
Alan

Subject: New article on rodents and food security

Dear colleagues,

Yesterday a new article by Grant Singleton, Herwig Leirs and myself
was published on the website of Pest Management Science: "The Year of
the Rat ends: Time to fight hunger!".

The article handles about the amount of food that is consumed by
rodents worldwide. We have estimated that this amount would be
sufficient to feed almost 280 million undernourished people. The main
conclusion is that more attention should be paid to prevention of pre-
and postharvest losses in order to feed the world's growing
population.

Page numbers have not yet been assigned, but the DOI will also work:
http://dx.doi.org/10.1002/ps.1718

Best regards,

Bastiaan
