Climate Change News:For crores of farmers of the country, the weather has made preparations to bring the message of relief this time. According to the latest estimates of the India Meteorological Department (IMD), the South-west monsoon may hit the coast of Kerala on 27 May 2025, about five days before normal time. The monsoon usually starts on 1 June, but this time its earlier influx is not considered less than a boon for the agriculture sector.

Effect of premature rain: Sowing gains, cost relief

The Indian agricultural system depends deeply on the monsoon. About 48% of the country's cultivable land is such that it is deprived of artificial means of irrigation. In such a situation, June-September rain not only becomes the basis of sowing, but also makes a big difference in production and income of farmers.
Experts believe that due to early monsoon, farmers will be able to sow kharif crops like rice, maize, cotton, soybean and sugarcane in time, which is likely to improve production and will also reduce the expenditure on irrigation.

This monsoon will become India's economic backbone

A large part of India's about 4 trillion dollar economy is dependent on agriculture and its associated industries. The monsoon is not only for crops, but also for recharging reservoirs and ground water levels. According to the IMD, this time more rainfall is forecast than normal for the second consecutive year, which will not only strengthen farming, but can also increase rural demand.

Better over the years, this year can become historical

Last year, the monsoon reached Kerala on 30 May and the total rainfall level across the country was recorded the highest after 2020. The forecast of this time is expected that food production can reach a new record. Agricultural experts believe that if this monsoon pace persists, food prices may bring stability, which will also help in controlling inflation.

Crop insurance and government schemes will get support

The government's Pradhan Mantri Crop Insurance Scheme and Irrigation Projects depend on monsoon. Timely rain can make the implementation of these schemes more effective. Also, it will give additional time to the government to plan food grain storage, export policy and subsidy distribution.

Rain of hope, message of prosperity

In this era of climate change, when fear of untimely rain and drought, this news of premature monsoon can prove to be a lifeline for both the farmers and the government. Now everyone's eyes are fixed on May 27 - when every drop falling from the sky, will bring new hope on the ground.
