Farmers are using tin sheets to cover and protect their agricultural land from wild boars in Baramulla, Jammu and Kashmir, India, on May 8, 2024. The farmers in Kashmir are increasingly worried due to the rising number of pigs. Wild boars are destroying the seeds that the farmers are sowing in their fields. The locals are saying that the growing population of wild boars in Baramulla is creating problems for the farmers in the area, as the animals are destroying the crops in the fields, causing heavy losses. Farmers, who rely on these nursery beds to plant paddy crops, are facing an unprecedented challenge this year, as many rice nursery beds have been damaged in the area.
