Information revealed that till August 23, kharif crops have actually been planted in around 106.5 million hectares-- just about 2 per cent more than the area covered throughout the exact same duration in 2013 yet 2.81 per-cent less than the normal acreage (which is actually the standard of the final five years). Fortunately is actually that the places under arhar, peanut, soy bean, and cotton are more than their five-year average. Nevertheless, all eyes are going to be on the weather in the following couple of full weeks as excess rainfalls in September might flood fields and cause accommodations which is bad for the ultimate yield. Till August 27, the South west downpour has been 7 per cent greater than typical along with Central and Southern India tape-recording rains which were much more than 17 per-cent excess thus far in the time. With La Nina setting in, the storms may even the score stronger.
