Information revealed that till August 23, kharif plants have been sown in around 106.5 thousand hectares– almost 2 per-cent more than the location covered throughout the same duration in 2013 but 2.81 per-cent less than the normal land area (which is actually the standard of the final five years). The bright side is that the locations under arhar, groundnut, soybean, as well as cotton are greater than their five-year average.
However, all eyes will get on the weather condition in the following handful of weeks as surplus rains in September could inundate fields and also lead to hotels which misbehaves for the final return. Till August 27, the Southwest gale has been 7 percent greater than usual with Central as well as Southern India recording rainfalls which were greater than 17 per-cent excess thus far in the time. Along with La Nina setting in, the rains might get back at stronger.
