In every state of India, agriculture is a prevalent practice. Farmers across the country cultivate various crops like pulses, vegetables, and fruits, which serve as a source of income for them. However, there are certain factors that pose a risk of losses to farmers. Factors such as the occurrence of diseases in crops or unfavorable weather conditions can jeopardize the crops. Additionally, the menace of blue bulls also poses a significant threat. In this article, we are discussing a technique developed by scientists that can help farmers protect their crops from blue bulls. Now, farmers can create an organic remedy at home to drive away these pests. The best part is that this method incurs no additional costs.
To drive away blue bulls from the fields, farmers need five liters of cow urine, one kilogram of blue bull dung, two and a half kilograms of bakain leaves, two and a half kilograms of neem leaves, one kilogram of datura, one kilogram of madar leaves, 250 grams of surti leaves, 250 grams of red chili seeds, and 250 grams of garlic. Farmers should mix all these ingredients thoroughly. Subsequently, the mixture should be placed in a clay pot, sealed tightly for 25 days, with a 1.3-part empty space in the container. This precaution is necessary to prevent the pot from bursting due to the formation of organic gas after fermentation.
After 25 days, farmers can open the clay pot and transfer the mixture to another container. Once the mixture has aged for 25 days, it will turn into a potent organic medicine with a strong odor. Farmers can then dilute 50% of this medicine in 100 liters of water. Next, they should add 250 grams of soap and apply the solution at the rate of one Bigha per acre. The strong smell of this solution acts as a deterrent, keeping animals away from the crops.
Farmers can apply this organic remedy on crops such as pulses, wheat, sugarcane, and maize. It can also be sprayed on vegetables. It is advisable for farmers to always store this remedy in a covered container, as the effectiveness of the solution is directly proportional to its strong odor.
