Kharif’s crops raised the pace, while the total sown area reached 8.93 million hectares from 13 June 148,000 hectares more than in the previous period.
According to the latest data published by the Ministry of Agriculture, an increase in the grown area is largely driven.
Paddy, the most important crop of Kharif, was sown on 453,000 hectares, an increase of more than 13%. Pulses and Olejnice have seen an area of an area of 18% and 36.6% on a hope of a normal monsoon, as predicted by the Indian meteorological ward (IMD).
Between pulses, Moong and Urad, they saw an increase in their area, while it fell for Arhar.
Meanwhile, the areas and outputs of higher oilseeds are expected to reduce the dependence on the import of edible oil. Currently, approximately 60% of the annual consumption of edible oil in the country is approximately 26 million tons fulfilled by importing palms, soy and sunflower oils.
The Kharif season, also known as the monsoon season, usually runs from last week to September. Kharif crops are approximately 60% of the total Indian crops and all – pads, corn, soy, tur and cotton – are strongly dependent on monsoon precipitation.
Although the Kharif season has just begun, the increase in the area clearly shows that farmers are bulls on monsoon. The increase in the area also distracts concerns about the stimulus when inflation.
The center has just closed a massive off -road campaign, “Viksit Krishi Sankalp Abhiyan”, a nationwide initiative that took place from 29 May to 12 June across all countries and trade unions, focused on the equipment of information, tools and technologies for the sowing season.
Banking at the IMD forecast of 105% of average long-term deductions, the government set a record objective of food production 354.64 MT for 2025-26, which is 3.8% of 341.55 MT in 2024-25.
It is assumed that the unpeeled output will rise to 147.35 MT from 136.30 MT, while wheat production is estimated at 117.40 MT, from 115 MT. The corn output is expected to increase to 42.68 MT from 40 MT.
However, the target for impulses was revised lower to 26.47 MT for 2025-26 out of 29.90 MT a year, after the actual production dropped to 23.02 MT. The target for oilseed remains almost unchanged at 44.75 Mt.
