Farmer Uses DJ & Loud Music To Keep Locusts Away From Field, Twitter Reacts Over Desi Jugaad

Year 2020 has been one of the worst years of our lives, we were already busy fighting against coronavirus which has already taken so many lives and now we have to deal with the locusts that have entered India and are damaging our crops.

Though the Indian government and many state governments started preparing for this problem quite early, it is still not easy to control locusts and they are ruining the crops in Punjab, Uttar Pradesh, Maharashtra, Haryana, Madhya Pradesh, etc. It is being said that the locust attack this year is among the worst that has taken place in the last 26 years.

While the governments are doing their best to get rid of these locusts, the Indian farmers have also come up with desi ways of dealing with them.

A senior official of Uttar Praesh police recently took to the micro-blogging site Twitter and shared a video in which a farmer has set up a DJ booth in the middle of the field and played loud music for scaring away the locusts. The police official wrote that DJ is not only used for dancing purposes but it could be helpful in making these locusts run away as well.
