Weather is directly proportional to the production of different crops.
To check the weather situation for coming days is not a problem in present days of modern technology. We should pray our Allah for a beneficial rainfall. Farmers are advised to be aware and keep an eye on their local weather forecast by using internet and an authentic and reliable website. In this way, they can schedule their irrigation in line with the weather.

Production and yield of all major and minor crops is decreasing. Month of May has not faced such extreme temperatures during the previous earlier years.
