Kharif sowing slow, 15 more districts face rain deficiency
The government is monitoring 262 districts for rainfall deficiency and El Nino impacts. Fifteen additional districts have been identified as facing rainfall deficits. Sowing remains slower than usual due to uneven rainfall across the country. However, rains are forecast for Gujarat, Haryana, Punjab, and Rajasthan soon. Contingency plans are being implemented to minimize potential impacts on agriculture.
