.1 min reviewed Final Updated: Aug 28 2024|12:07 AM IST.The area under kharif even more enhanced during the week ended August 23 as sowing was virtually comprehensive in the majority of plants. Records presented that till August 23, kharif crops have been sown in around 106.5 thousand hectares-- just about 2 per-cent more than the place covered in the course of the same time period last year however 2.81 per-cent less than the typical land area (which is actually the standard of the final 5 years). Fortunately is that the locations under arhar, peanut, soybean, and cotton are greater than their five-year average. However, all eyes will get on the weather condition in the following couple of full weeks as surplus storms in September could possibly swamp industries as well as result in lodging which misbehaves for the final return. Till August 27, the Southwest downpour has actually been 7 per-cent more than typical with Central as well as Southern India recording storms which were much more than 17 per-cent excess so far in the time. With La Nina embeding in, the rains may get even stronger.
