Information showed that till August 23, kharif crops have actually been planted in around 106.5 million hectares-- nearly 2 per-cent much more than the area dealt with in the course of the same period in 2014 however 2.81 per cent lower than the normal land area (which is the average of the last five years). The bright side is actually that the regions under arhar, groundnut, soybean, as well as cotton are actually more than their five-year average. However, all eyes will certainly perform the weather condition in the following couple of full weeks as excess rains in September might deluge fields as well as result in accommodations which is bad for the last turnout. Till August 27, the South west gale has been 7 per cent greater than typical along with Central and also Southern India recording rains which were much more than 17 per-cent surplus so far in the time. Along with La Nina embeding in, the rains might get even more powerful.
