Crop Protection Scheme

Healthy Crops. Stronger Farmers.

Our Approach

Awareness on pest attacks, biological control, balanced pesticide use and timely monitoring — protecting farmers from crop loss.

Pest attacks (locusts, caterpillars, aphids and other insects) cause major losses to farmers by damaging leaves, stems and roots — driven by climate change, monoculture, pesticide overuse and the loss of natural predators. Our scheme helps farmers protect crops through biological-control methods, balanced pesticide use, timely monitoring and field-level training — keeping production healthy and income stable.

What We Do

  • Pest-attack identification & response
  • Biological-control techniques
  • Balanced pesticide-use guidance
  • Timely field monitoring & alerts
Common Pests

Know Your Threats

Locusts

Swarming insects that devour fields of standing crops in hours — early reporting is critical.

Caterpillars (Sundi)

Larval stage of moths and butterflies that chew leaves, stems and pods, severely damaging young crops.

Aphids

Tiny sap-sucking insects that drain plant fluids and transmit viral diseases between crops.

Why It Happens

Main Causes of Pest Attacks

  • Climate change altering pest life cycles and increasing outbreak frequency.
  • Monoculture and unbalanced cropping reducing natural pest resistance.
  • Overuse and misuse of chemical pesticides killing natural predators.
  • Reduction of biodiversity and absence of natural enemies.
What to Do

Crop Protection Measures

Biological Control

Use natural predators, neem-based bio-pesticides and pheromone traps to control pest populations without harming the ecosystem.

Balanced Pesticide Use

Use chemical pesticides only when necessary, in correct dose and at the right time — avoid blanket spraying.

Timely Field Monitoring

Regular field inspection and early reporting through agriculture-department channels — early detection prevents large outbreaks.

Farmer Awareness

Field days, school-of-farmer programmes and awareness drives on identifying pest attacks and responding correctly.

Crop Rotation & Diversity

Rotate crops and grow diverse varieties to break pest life cycles and protect soil health.
