Abstract |
|
Rice is a very important agricultural produce in India which is greatly dependent on rainfall. Grown during different times of the year at different regions of the country, the crop heavily relies on the availability of water during different phases of its growth. This study delves into the temporal and spatial correlations of monsoon and post monsoon rainfall on kharif and rabi rice yields respectively. The study shows the strong dependence of kharif production on Summer monsoon. On the other hand, Rabi production is substantially correlated with the precipitation of December of the previous year. Further, the study on the influence of Bay of Bengal cyclones on the rabi production for the states along the east Indian coast shows the constructive relation between the number of cyclones and the Rabi rice production in Odisha. |
