Drought Situation in Rajasthan
Widespread drought has given a tough time to Rajasthan in 2002. Failure of monsoon saw all the 32 districts of the state reeling under drought causing severe shortage of food, fodder, drinking water and employment opportunities. Almost all districts are suffering from sharp depletion of ground water. This year seems to be an extremely bad year for farmers, already hit by drought in the previous couple of years. With little output in kharif season, now the rabi crop is being adversely affected due to non-congenial temperature this winter. If the condition does not change in the coming months, rabi production may fall by 60 percent. This year due to scarce moisture content in soil, only 2586000 hectare area is sown under different rabi crops in comparison to 6097000 hectares of last Rabi season.
