"One poppy makes 20-25 grams of opium. The parrots feed on the plants 30-40 times a day. Wiping out our profits," Neemuch farmers complain.
The hopped up parrots can strike at anytime. So cultivators are forced to guard their fields day and night. "We make loud sounds and use firecrackers. But nothing helps."
Anyone feel sorry for the strung-out parrots or the pukes growing the poppies?
