5 Chait, Bhojpur – The recent winter rains following a long drought have brought enthusiasm and happiness among farmers in Bhojpur. With fears of crop failure due to lack of rain, farmers are now feeling relieved with the rainfall.
Adibahadur Bisht, a local farmer from Temkemaeyung-5, stated that the rains have been extremely beneficial for crops like wheat, maize, potatoes, and various vegetables. He added that the drought had caused the winter crops to wither, but the rain has revived hope among the farming community.
“The prolonged drought had pushed the winter crops toward a withered state,” he said. “With the arrival of the rain, we farmers are very happy and hopeful that the crops will now flourish properly.”
The crops that had wilted due to lack of soil moisture have begun to turn green again following the rainfall. Farmers anticipate an increase in production as a result. The rain has provided additional relief, especially to those in areas without adequate irrigation facilities.
According to local farmers, the soil had become extremely dry before the rains, negatively affecting the crop growth process.
However, with the soil moisture replenished by the rainfall, crop growth has resumed actively. Farmers believe this will not only increase production but also improve the quality of the crops. The rainfall during the maize sowing season has further eased farming activities for them.
