Bhiwani: The sudden change in weather was a relief for everyone. Although it did not rain heavily, the rain gave people relief from the heat and humidity. Light rain caused the mercury temperature to drop by three degrees Celsius. People received relief from the heat as the mercury fell. Since no precautions were taken on the first day of millet shopping, the millet piles were soaked due to the light rain in the grain market. Water seeped in under many of the piles. Although the moisture content of millet is lost after a short exposure to sunlight, the moisture content of millet is currently above the prescribed standards.
At about one o’clock in the afternoon, dark clouds suddenly appeared in the sky and after a while a strong gust of wind arose. Along with the wind, a light drizzle began. Within a very short time the drizzle increased. Some places recorded 5 mm of rain and some places recorded 6 mm of rain. Kharif crops will also benefit from light rain. Because at that time there was a need for irrigation in the Kharif fields. Light rain topped things off.
The drizzle caused the temperature to drop by three degrees
Due to light rain, the temperature dropped by three degrees on Saturday afternoon. The mercury temperature was 36 degrees Celsius for the last few days. Due to light rain, the temperature dropped to 33 degrees Celsius today. For many days people suffered from heat and humidity, but today light rain cooled the weather. Kharif crops will be beneficial due to the change in weather. Because of the excessive heat, the plants began to wither. What is noteworthy here is that the Kharif crops need to be watered in September due to lack of heavy rains.
Agreements disclosed the procurement process
Government procurement of millets this season has started from today. Before the purchase, there was no apparent agreement on the grain market. Since no millet piles were created under the sheds, they were soaked by today’s light rain. Due to the millet heaps on the slopes, it was soaked by rainwater. Because the millet heaps were not covered with a tarpaulin. Due to the light rain there is currently more moisture in the millet piles. To later determine the moisture content of these piles, they were dried in the sun and by evening their moisture also disappeared.
