This will be another disaster in India, with more than 80 million locusts per square kilometer. The Indian government sent troops to control locusts, but with little success. At the beginning of this year, locusts have been plaguing India, even because of locusts. India was forced to sign an armistice agreement with Pakistan, but after five months, the number of locusts increased, destroying a large number of farmland, and locusts laid eggs very quickly. Can breed a large number of locusts in a short time. Even though India tried various ways to join the team, locusts were still not completely eliminated. Controlling locusts is now the biggest headache for the Indian government.
Because of the epidemic, there is a food shortage in India, and now it is the harvest season, and a large part of Indian people will starve because of locusts. Locust crossing the border is a terrible thing. The land gnawed by locusts can be said to be barren. Locusts not only eat food crops, but also eat almost all green leaves. Locusts are not picky eaters, they breed quickly, and farmers can't prevent them. The plague of locusts in India had eased for a while before, but not long ago, after the eggs hatched, they swept the land of India in greater numbers.
At present, the main way to control locusts in India is spraying pesticides, which is carried out by the fire brigade. In addition, there are some strange methods, such as scaring off locusts with a loud voice, or fumigating locusts with firewood smoke, but there are too many locusts, and these methods have little effect. The epidemic situation in India is not very good now. While the Indian government is busy controlling the locust plague, it also needs to control the development of the domestic epidemic. That's why it rains all night, which keeps the Indian government busy. Prior to this, India opened the road. Because of long-term isolation, India's economy is also declining, but India's population density is high.
According to the data, the second outbreak of the Indian epidemic is close at hand, but it is difficult for India to take care of these two things at the same time. It is too difficult to handle these two things properly. The spread of the epidemic is too barbaric, not only in India, but also in many countries. Locusts are natural disasters. Even without the epidemic, it is difficult for India to face so many locusts at once, not to mention India, which is now overwhelmed.
The last time such a large-scale locust plague occurred in India was in 1993. Before that, 400 billion locusts swept through India in February, but it was not yet time to produce crops, so locusts left little damage to India except their eggs. On the contrary, Iran's grain-producing areas were ravaged and almost completely eaten by locusts, but after the locusts crossed the border, India did not completely eliminate the eggs of locusts, because an epidemic broke out in India soon, so India missed an opportunity to completely control locusts. Fortunately, the number of locusts is not as terrible as 400 billion. According to the photos in February, locusts are at least as big as adults' fingers.
In order to control locusts, the first thing to do is to spray pesticides to solve the adult locusts. But the life cycle of locusts is not long, so it can be said that humans will not kill them, and locusts themselves will die soon. But the destruction of farmland during this period can be said to be amazing, so the spraying of pesticides is very important. India has also sent fighter planes to spray pesticides before, which shows that the Indian government attaches great importance to it. Besides killing adults, eggs should also be paid attention to, otherwise a new batch of locusts will grow up and enter an infinite cycle. Now, the control of locust plague in India has been carried out in an orderly way, but the control of epidemic situation has been out of order. It can only be said that it is still difficult for the Indian government to grasp both aspects, but it is better than no result at all.
