India Faces Worst Locust Attack In 27 Years | Focus On Agriculture
Video description:
After continued devastation from Covid-19 and Cyclone Amphan, now vicious swarms of desert locust are sweeping over North-West India. The desert locust is a short-horned grasshopper. Not vicious when alone - and not known to harm humans - but in swarms, they damage large amounts of crops. Over the last few days, these swarms have been sighted in urban areas of Rajasthan, which is unusual because they are generally found near farmlands, but they have also been spotted in parts of Madhya Pradesh and the Vidharbha region of Maharashtra. The first swarms this year were sighted along the India-Pakistan border on April 11, which are still months ahead of their usual time of arrival which is between July and October. How perilous can they be to India's food security and its limping economy? Watch Siraj Hussain, Former Agriculture Secretary & Visiting Senior Fellow, ICRIER and RG Agarwal, Founder and Group Chairman, Dhanuka Agritech discuss worst locust attack in 27 years. Listen in!
