Records showed that till August 23, kharif plants have actually been actually sown in around 106.5 million hectares-- nearly 2 per cent much more than the location dealt with in the course of the very same duration last year but 2.81 per cent less than the normal acreage (which is the average of the final 5 years). The bright side is actually that the places under arhar, groundnut, soy bean, and cotton are actually more than their five-year average. Nevertheless, all eyes will certainly be on the climate in the following couple of full weeks as surplus storms in September can flood areas and lead to accommodations which misbehaves for the final yield. Till August 27, the South west gale has been 7 per-cent much more than normal along with Central and Southern India tape-recording rains which were greater than 17 per cent surplus so far in the season. Along with Los angeles Nina setting in, the rains might get even stronger.
