The Indian Meteorological Department (IMD) has claimed that this time the monsoon will be better than normal. There will be good rainfall from June to September. According to the department, this time there is a possibility of 105 percent more rainfall than normal, which is a good sign for farmers and agriculture. According to IMD, 105 per cent i.e. 87 cm of rainfall is likely in 2025. The monsoon season lasts for 4 months, for which the long -term average (LPA) is 868.6 mm i.e. 86.86 cm. This means that there will be so much rain in the entire season.
In 2024, IMD estimated 106 percent rainfall
The states where more than normal rainfall is estimated include Rajasthan, Madhya Pradesh, Odisha, Maharashtra, Uttar Pradesh, Chhattisgarh, Marathwada, West Bengal and Telangana. The states that are expected to receive less than normal rainfall include Jammu and Kashmir, Bihar, Tamil Nadu, Ladakh and Northeast states. The monsoon usually enters Kerala around 1 June. The monsoon usually comes between June 15–25. The monsoon returns from Rajasthan in the last week of September after a four -month season.
The scorching heat will remain for 2 months
According to the department, the outbreak of heat will continue in May and June. There is no possibility of Al Nino. Currently, heat and humidity are increasing, which will increase the demand for electricity and water. 52 percent of the agricultural sector in India depends on the monsoon. In such a situation, this is a relief news for the farmers. The sea temperature rises to 3-4 degrees due to El Nino. Due to this, there is more rainfall in areas with low rainfall and more rainfall areas receive more rainfall. The monsoon in India remains weak due to the influence of Al Nino.
70% rainfall occurs during monsoon.
70 percent of India’s rainfall occurs during the monsoon. 70-80 percent of the country’s farmers depend on monsoon for rain. More or less rainfall affects yields. The agricultural sector contributes 20 percent to the economy. Half of the population is working in the agriculture sector. Good rain means good income. Talking about 2020 to 2024, Skymet’s prediction has once again proved to be correct.
In 2024, IMD had estimated 106 percent and Skymet had estimated 102 percent rainfall, but the rainfall was 108 percent. Skymet had estimated 94 percent rainfall in 2023 and the rainfall was the same.
