For the last few weeks, locust teams have been seen in many states of India. These locusts enter Rajasthan from Iran through Pakistan and then cause heavy damage to crops in the inner states of India. It is reported that more than 9 new locust teams from Pakistan have reached different districts of Rajasthan and they may soon cause damage in many areas of Madhya Pradesh and Uttar Pradesh.
The Department of Agriculture is also on alert to see the possibilities of these new locust teams having reached Rajasthan in Madhya Pradesh and Uttar Pradesh. In the coming days, the direction of the wind will decide whether it enters other states. If the wind direction does not change, the 12-km locust team will enter MP and UP within the next few days.
