Rains most likely to mean problem for kharif acreage in India, presents information Agriculture

.1 min read through Last Improved: Aug 28 2024|12:07 AM IST.The location under kharif better strengthened throughout the week ended August 23 as sowing was almost full in many plants. Data presented that till August 23, kharif crops have actually been actually planted in around 106.5 thousand hectares-- nearly 2 per cent much more than the place dealt with during the exact same period last year but 2.81 percent less than the regular land area (which is the average of the last five years). The bright side is actually that the places under arhar, peanut, soy bean, and cotton are actually much more than their five-year average. Having said that, all eyes will definitely get on the weather in the next couple of weeks as surplus rainfalls in September could possibly swamp industries as well as result in hotels which misbehaves for the ultimate yield. Till August 27, the Southwest downpour has actually been actually 7 per cent much more than ordinary along with Central and also Southern India documenting rainfalls which were greater than 17 percent surplus up until now in the season. With La Nina embeding in, the rains may even the score more powerful.
