What you should know
Farmers have come up with many tricks to protect the ripening corn and fruits from monkeys. Sometimes they drive away monkeys by blowing slingshots, hohalla, karnals and stones, and sometimes by banging dishes or playing watchmen. However, the wild animals are disturbing the farmers.
Pitambar Bhusal of Sandhikhark Municipality-8 Kimdanda has installed a CC camera in the maize fields. When the monkey is about to come to the bari, the CC camera sends a signal to the laptop and mobile phone in the house. Then he runs towards the garden to chase the monkey. Up to two/three snails have grown on one plant. Monkeys are more attracted to ripening milky corn.
'It is not just about guarding the garden from morning to evening, you have to work at home, at the fair,' he said, 'When the monkey starts entering the garden, the CC camera gives a signal to my mobile and computer. Shouting, I run and chase monkeys.'
50 mango trees grew in turn. This year he has sold 50 quintals of mangoes in Sandhikhark market. "I have saved mangoes from monkeys with the help of CC cameras, I have also saved corn so far," he said, "When wild animals, birds, insects and grasshoppers enter the field, my mobile phone sounds like an alarm. And after looking, everything is visible.' He considered this technology as a reliable security guard.
13 In turn, corn has been produced. In the same field, 50 mango plants have been growing for four years. The income from mangoes is 4 to 6 lakh rupees per year. Spice crops such as beans, beans, parsley, and cucumbers are being produced in the cornfield.
'Now it is not possible to have people everywhere, technology should be used a lot,' Bhusal said, 'On my part, I will expand mango farming, next year I plan to plant hundreds of mango plants. Technology has made such a leap that in the near future, the time will come to irrigate fields and spray pesticides through drone cameras. He has installed three cameras in one bigha field. He shows the whole area
CC camera he added during mango fruiting. A camera is placed on a bamboo pole in the middle of the garden. Earlier, all the families in the house had to stand watch next to the fields with sticks to protect the corn. When the monkey came, I had to chase it. But after installing the camera, the watchman did not have to stay. Now the family can do all the household and fair work.
He had previously gone abroad for employment. Having spent seven years in Dubai, four years in Qatar and two years in Malaysia, he came up with the idea of installing CC cameras based on his experiences there and watching YouTube. The entire family including his brother Thakur Bhusal is engaged in agriculture. All families do farming together.
"I grow mangoes, vegetables, spices," he said, "I raise goats and chickens and produce meat and eggs." I am preparing to raise buffaloes to export milk to Sandhikhark market. I have seen the future in agricultural enterprise, now I want to study abroad, I gave up my visa. He has a plan to grow a mango tree that will produce 500 fruits. His goal is to expand agricultural enterprises using technology.
The villagers are shocked to see Bhusal saving the corn from the monkeys through the CCTV camera. Neighbors are sitting on the side of the fence and on the road carrying sticks, slingshots and stones to drive the monkeys away. But he monitors the monkey from his mobile phone.
CC camera is active even at night. At night, when people or wild animals enter the garden, the mobile alarm goes off and the camera lights up. Now monkeys and boars are damaging the corn. He has put a fence on the side of the fence. A monkey jumps from a tree and comes back, but a boar cannot jump.
'The CC camera is a security guard,' he said, 'it shows everything in the garden, wild animals, people, roots, butterflies and gives an alarm. He said that all places, including houses, should be monitored by CCTV cameras.
