WorldKarnataka Farmers Hope Rabi Crop Offsets Kharif Losses
In Karnataka, deficient rainfall during the kharif season severely affected crops like maize, groundnut, tur, ragi, cotton, black gram, and horse gram across 177 taluks. Farmers now hope the rabi crop, including jowar, wheat, safflower, and Bengal gram, will compensate for losses. Successful rabi sowing depends on rainfall in the next two weeks. Paddy cultivation in Davangere relies on water release from Bhadra dam, which is currently uncertain.
