How to deal with Locust problem in Scheduled Desert Area.

The following  check points must be  followed while dealing with the Locust problem in SDA.
1. Regular surveys must be carried out during Locust active season as well as calm season
2.Always keep ready all control potential  as ready to use with in no advance notice .
3.Ever ready  never fuse principle  must be followed.
4.Adopt zero tolerance policy to control Locust as there is no Economic threshold level is followed  because of very high feeding potential of locust.
5. Let's know first, wheather the locust  problem is because of its local breeding or it is invasion from other countries like  Pakistan or China as once during 2006 the invasion of Migratory Locust  from China  was observed in Cold desert area of Ladakh region of J& K state which was also controlled by organizing the control operation in cold desert area in my supervision.
5.The desert locust may enter or invade in to India
either from Bhuj area of Gujarat state or from Pakistan side through Jaisalmer or Barmer area.
6.If it is local breeding then control it before it could  form swarms.
7.The ecosystem of the Scheduled  desert area of Rajasthan is changing very fastly due to Development of the irrigation facilities due to Indira Gandhi Canal.The soil along with this canal may have sufficient moisture for its breeding or egg laying.These places must be observed very critically  or thoroughly to detect the locust population.
8.chasing the locust Swarms during evening hours to note the exact place  where the  locust population settles during evening.Pin point the such   areas in evening itself.
9 ,Ensure and make the availability of all the control inputs or materials including  man ,material ,Machnery,,methods,and sufficient money in those pin pointed areas in night itself.
10.conduct control operation very early  morning before sun rise as after sun rising  the locust will start to fly and then it is not advisable to control the desert locust locust.
