Farmers can now check the losses caused by these primates on fields by adopting farming of Medicinal and aromatic plants in areas affected. Many types of medicinal plants including Sarpagandha, Ashwagandha, Brahmi, Kaleigh, Shatavari, Tulsi, Aloe vera are not liked by monkeys and the major benefit of practicing farming of herbal plants is that monkeys do not eat them.
In addition, it also increases the productivity of the soil which increases the yield of the next crop on this land. Herbal plants are used for preparing medicines, so there is already an established market for their production. Similarly, aromatic plants such as Lavender, Citronella, Geranium, Palma Rosa etc., can also be grown to protect against this danger.
