Farmers in Punjab's Faridkot district use locally brewed liquor as pesticide to get better yield from crops. They say, it is not only cheap but gives better results than pesticides available in the market. Farmers claim, spraying one liter of hooch mixed with 80 liters of water shows a difference in their crops within 15 days.
