El Niño conditions have led to agricultural decline, with the state recording a 50.7% rainfall deficit. Andhra Pradesh Chief Minister N. Chandrababu Naidu directed officials to implement an action plan to mitigate the impact, focusing on protecting farmers and controlling prices of essential commodities like rice, onion, palm oil, and red gram. Officials were instructed to assess rice stocks and promote kitchen gardens to help manage vegetable prices.
