Coriander: The 'Magic' Crop That Doubles Income, Deters Nilgai in Sitamarhi

  • Agricultural expert Alok Kumar from Sitamarhi suggests planting coriander to deter nilgai and protect main crops.
  • Nilgai dislike the strong scent of coriander, preventing them from entering fields where it's sown around main crops like wheat, chickpeas, or peas.
  • This method is organic, environmentally friendly, and provides a free protective shield for farmers.
  • Coriander offers double benefits: it protects the main crop and provides additional income as it's sold as a vegetable and spice with year-round demand.
  • Farmers in Sitamarhi who adopted this method reported surprising results, with nilgai no longer approaching their fields.

Why It Matters: Coriander acts as a natural nilgai deterrent, protecting crops and boosting farmer income in Sitamarhi.
