Unseasonal and widespread rain over the weekend has wreaked havoc in the region, extensively damaging standing wheat, mustard and potato crops. According to reports received here, the fields are waterlogged with rainwater in Agra, Mathura, Firozabad, Mainpuri, Etah and Fatehpur Sikri.
The district administrations will soon conduct a survey to identify the crop damage and loss suffered by farmers in their respective areas. The report will be sent to the government, which will take a decision on compensating farmers for the losses.
In Agra, around 138 hectare of land is under wheat production while the millet has been sown in approximately 130 hectares. Mustard is being cultivated across 52 hectares of land.
