A nearly three per cent increase in the area under rice and a 7.6 per cent rise in the sugarcane acreage, have pushed up the current kharif crops coverage by 3.5 per cent.
Data from the Ministry of Agriculture and Farmers’ Welfare showed that the area under pulses, oilseeds and cotton has decreased. The coverage of coarse cereals is up 1.64 per cent as of Friday.
