Rain in Jabalpur: Due to unseasonal rains, two-way loss of the farmer, crop in crisis
Jabalpur, Naiduniya representative. The unseasonal rains have put the farmers and administration on their toes. Wherever wheat is lying outside in the procurement centres, wheat got wet on a large scale, and there is a strong possibility of spoilage. Similarly, urad and moong grown in the fields are also expected to be badly affected. The officials of the administration are also visiting villages to assess the impact of the weather. Information about damage is being received in many villages. There has been a drop in temperature for the last one week. Water is also falling continuously. This is the condition of the entire district. But the rain since last Saturday afternoon took everyone by surprise. Today on Monday also it rained intermittently throughout the day. It is reported to rain for two to two and a half hours at many places in the rural areas. Teams of officers have also started running towards the rural areas to take stock of the damage caused due to this. There is a possibility of large-scale damage to urad in the fields of Ghughra Kala, Ghughra Khurd, Bamhori and Chanti. Wherever urad-moong crops are being taken in Patan, Sihora and Majhauli, there is a danger of rotting of the crops. Plants drowned due to water logging in many fields.
Effect will be visible after ten days:
Moong and Urad in the district The reality of the loss will be known in the next ten-twelve days. Experts say that the soil of the fields has become very wet. In such a situation, if the soil dries up in a day or two and the weather opens up, then the crops will be saved to a large extent. But if the moisture remains intact in the fields and the water recedes then urad-moong can suffer a lot.
The procurement work has remained closed on Saturday and Sunday. That’s why wheat was not available in the open at most of the procurement centres. Despite this, there were many centers like Baroda Kaladumar, where thousands of quintals of wheat were lying in the open and got completely soaked.
He said this..
Due to untimely rains, the crop has rotted in the fields where the water was filled and where the soil is wet, the crop has also been damaged. May be.

Urad and moong of this season It is a summer crop. Both water and heat are necessary for them. Due to continuous water fall, the risk of rotting of plants and caterpillars has increased.

Purchase centers have been made in warehouses only. That’s why transportation of wheat has been done at most of the places. Despite this, wheat has been damaged in many dumping centers.
