Data revealed that till August 23, kharif plants have actually been raised in around 106.5 thousand hectares-- nearly 2 per-cent much more than the area covered during the course of the very same period in 2014 however 2.81 percent less than the regular land area (which is the average of the last 5 years). The bright side is actually that the areas under arhar, peanut, soybean, and cotton are actually more than their five-year average. However, all eyes are going to be on the weather in the next couple of full weeks as excess rains in September could deluge areas as well as result in hotels which misbehaves for the final return. Till August 27, the South west gale has been actually 7 per-cent more than usual with Central and Southern India recording rainfalls which were greater than 17 per cent excess thus far in the period. With La Nina setting in, the rains might get even stronger.
