Advisory for Farmers
-
Wheat crop is fully matured in the agricultural plains of Punjab KP & Balochistan. Whereas harvesting/ threshing of wheat crop has been completed in agricultural plains of Sindh & adjoining areas of southern Punjab. Farmers are therefore advised to harvest the full matured crop keeping the expected rains in mind.
-
Wheat obtained after threshing should be stored with proper treatment so that wheat may be kept for long time without any loss due to present and expected moist conditions.
-
Pest/viral attacks are expected after recent rains on sugarcane crop. Farmers are therefore advised to take in time precautionary measures in this regard.
