Arvan Storm Impact: Rain, Strong Winds Damage Crops In Amethi

Rain and strong winds in Amethi, linked to the impact of the Arvan storm, have increased worries for farmers as standing crops have been damaged in the fields.

Intermittent rain for the fourth consecutive day has affected normal life in the area. With strong winds blowing along with the rain, standing paddy and sugarcane crops in the fields have fallen, causing heavy losses to farmers.

Continuous rainfall has also led to waterlogging in the fields, adding to the concern over crop damage.

Farmers have demanded that a survey of the crop loss be carried out and compensation be provided.

Meanwhile, officials of Haidergarh sugar mill have started a survey of the damaged sugarcane crop in farmers’ fields.
