What happened

Unseasonal rain recently struck Karnal district, damaging thousands of tonnes of paddy stocks in grain markets and flattening standing crops in fields. Farmers reported that the downpour soaked paddy lying under open skies, and many heaps remained uncovered due to a shortage of protective covers. Karam Singh noted that the rainfall increased the moisture content of the paddy, while Jaspal Singh expressed concern over the difficulty of procurement.
