The Pest Situation in Sikkim
Sikkim is India's first fully organic state ā a designation that restricts conventional pesticide use across agriculture and living environments. This creates a genuine pest management challenge: rodents, termites, and beetles are active, but standard chemical treatments may conflict with organic certification requirements. PCPI has developed an eco-compatible treatment protocol specifically for Sikkim's regulatory environment, using WHO-approved formulations that are both effective and certification-compliant.
