Farmers in Yadgir district have sown crops in 53.85% of the targeted 4,01,638 hectares of land for the kharif season 2023-24.

Due to the delay in monsoon in June, farmers could not bring fields under sowing as much as it was expected. But they started a sowing briskly once it began to rain this month.

According to information provided by the Agriculture Department, sowing has been completed in 2,16,296 hectares (53.85%) against 4,01,638 hectares set as target this year.
