Groundnut
The widespread rain in the state of Gujarat , Maharashtra, Andhra Pradesh, Karnataka and Tamil Nadu facilitated the sowing from June. The weather condition in the month of July was also very much helpful for the sowing, germination and growth of the early sown crop. However, late receipt of rain in Punjab (Faridkot, Sangrur), Uttar Pradesh (Bijnor, Jhansi), Rajasthan (Jodhpur, Bikaner, Sikar, Tonk) delayed sowing of groundnut. The present weather condition in these state is very much favourable for the sowing and germination.
