Plant what they won't like to eat next time. No matter what you do, they will find a way around it in a matter of time. They are that smart.

Get shearbutter, mix it with an unadulterated powdered cayenne pepper.

Cause monkeys don't have the intelligence to dictate plants that will be harmful to them ?

This is a high level technical question that could be of help to future farmers.
See the kind of low minded response I am seeing.
Where are those great mind's in nairaland?
This is a clear evidence of how the minds of those commenting in nairaland have been reduced to nonetity.

At poster, please go else where for solution.
fellow okra farmers in your Axis and find out if they ever had similar challenge, and how they solved it.

Wish you good luck and great harvest.

From Google Ai Overview:

To deter monkeys from eating okra in your farm, consider using a combination of methods including visual and auditory deterrents, as well as physical barriers. Visual deterrents like reflective tape and shiny objects can be effective. Auditory deterrents such as loud noises or recordings of predators can also help. Physical barriers like nets or fences around the okra plants can prevent access. Additionally, ensure there are no alternative food sources readily available on your property to minimize monkey attraction.
Detailed Methods:
1. Visual Deterrents:
Reflective Tape or Ribbons:
Monkeys are often startled by bright, moving objects. Hang reflective tape or ribbons around the perimeter of your okra patch or on the plants themselves.
Shiny Objects:
Use shiny objects like CDs, foil, or plastic bottles to create a visual distraction that may deter monkeys.
Scarecrows:
Traditional scarecrows can also be effective in scaring away monkeys, particularly if they are moved around periodically.
2. Auditory Deterrents:
Predator Sounds: Play recordings of predator sounds (like lions or tigers) or loud, sudden noises that can startle monkeys.
Cracker Sounds: Utilize the sound of crackers or other loud, popping noises to scare monkeys away.
Horn Sounds: Use horns or sirens to emit loud noises that can be startling to monkeys.
3. Physical Barriers:
Nets: Cover okra plants with nets to prevent monkeys from reaching them.
Fences: Construct a strong fence around your okra patch, ensuring it is tall enough to deter monkeys from climbing over or digging under.
Barriers at Entrances: If monkeys are accessing your farm through specific paths, create physical barriers like tree stumps or barriers at those entry points.
4. Manage Food Sources:
Avoid Leaving Food: Do not leave food scraps or other potential attractants around your farm.
Secure Bins: Ensure garbage bins are securely closed to prevent monkeys from accessing them.
Consider Planting Other Food Sources: If possible, consider planting other fruit trees or plants that monkeys might prefer, away from the okra patch, to redirect their foraging behavior.
5. Other Considerations:
Persistence:
Deterrence methods may require consistency and may need to be adapted as monkeys become accustomed to them.
Professional Assistance:
If monkey problems persist or become severe, consider consulting with a local wildlife expert or pest control professional for additional advice or solutions.
Local Laws and Regulations:
Be aware of any local regulations regarding wildlife management and control.

Instead of saving the okro
People come dey tell op how to save the monkeys...oga this ur farm is a real monkey business o

So are you saying he is a monkey farmer now?
Come to think of it though, how much is a monkey in the open market these days? It could be a business opportunity worth exploring.

Gather old unused clothes, wear them to trees/sticks, positions them like humans where the monkeys can sight them. They will think the clothes are humans and stay away from your farm.

Lay a trap and catch them all. The best trap,of cos even a blind man knows. Just put couple of ripe plantains,banana into a big trap. Catch them all and sell
Big cages preferably laced with lots of bananas 🍌 so they can be caught alive and sell them more costly than dead ones
