Dekadal Agrometeorologicals

According to the weather forecast, in the coming third dekad of November 2023, the moisture condition is likely to have a relative strength over south and south-eastern parts of the country where Bega is second rainy season will create favourable conditions for the water needs of Bega crops over the highland parts and insure the availability of pasture and drinking water to improve animals feeds and fodder as well as regeneration of natural and artificial ponds. The enhanced moisture will have a good opportunity to collect and store rainwater. Moreover the expected enhanced moisture at the beginning of the dekad over south-western, western and eastern parts of the country will have positive contribution to satisfy the daily water need of lately planted Meher crops that need complete growth, pulse crops that planted at the end of the season over high lands using reserved moisture in the soil, perennial plants and to improve the availability of pasture and drinking water particularly over the southern portion of the country. However, the expected heavy fall over western, south-western and southern half of the country would have positive contribution crop which found in different growth stage perennial plants, improve the availability of pasture and drinking water over south and south-eastern pastoral and agro pastoral areas and which gives good opportunity to collect rain water harvesting. On the other hand, the expected heavy fall over some areas which are characterized as moisture excess areas might experience water logging, runoff and soil erosion due to heavy fall.
