Fact of the Owl is a benefit for farmers

A pair of owls can protect 25 hectares of rice plants. Within a year, a single owl can prey on 1300 rats.

The use of owls can reduce the attack of mice on plantation and agricultural land to below 5 percent.

Rice mice (Rattus argentiventer) is one of the most dangerous pests for rice crops, where rodent pest attacks can result in considerable damage to crop failure. Often rice farmers are made powerless by these rodents because rat pest control is more difficult than other rice pest controls.

The right solution for farmers is to install an owl nest on the ground, as this photograph.

Owls are a natural predator of rodent pests and mouse enemies in the wild. Owls are more effective than rat control using rat poison, gropyokan (rat hunt involving many people together and simultaneously) and others. As a natural predator, the Serak Java owl is the most popular and reliable rat hunter, both in oil palm plantations and in rice farms. In terms of cost, controlling the attack of rats using owls is 50 percent lower than the chemical mouse counter.
