Tea Plantation Devastated by Looper Caterpillar Infestation in Jhapa

Biratnagar. Everything is green everywhere at the moment. But the tea garden in the Prithvinagar area of Bhadrapur 1, Jhapa, looks like it has been ravaged by a terrible fire.

In the tea gardens spread far and wide, not a single green leaf remains. The tea plants standing before our eyes have become bare, black, and dry twigs, devoid of leaves.
