Desert locusts primarily feed on a wide variety of vegetation, including grasses, leaves, and crops. They are known to consume large quantities of plant material, which can cause significant agricultural damage. Their diet can vary based on availability, but they tend to favor young, tender plants. In swarms, their feeding can devastate regions, leading to food shortages.

A Desert Locust adult can consume roughly its own weight in fresh food per day, that is about two grams every day. A very small part of an average swarm (or about one ton of locusts) eats the same amount of food in one day as about 10 elephants or 25 camels or 2,500 people.
