Manson is over from most of guar
growing belt. There are minimum chances
of any major rainfall. Guar gum ( seed ) crop conditions are clear now. In this year production
will be normal there is no any news of major crop damage. In Haryana there can
be some damage due to excessive rainfall, but that will be in the limit of 10%.
Overall Haryana produce 20-22 % of total Indian guar production so the 0 %
variation will be not more than 2 - 2.2 % of total production.
Some people can compare this year (14-15)
production with last year year (13-14) production. Last year production was
bumper in timely rainfall condition. This year production of gaur will be above the
normal.
There were drought conditions
initially. Sowing started very late. This drought condition gave an option to
farmers to grow guar instead of other water intensive crop like cotton, paddy
in irrigated area of Haryana, Ganganagar, Hanumangarh and Bikaner. In rain fed
area situation was in the same direction , farmers of Rain fed area preferred Guar crop over the other crop like
Bajara ( pear millet) , Moong (Green Gram) Moth .It is
The late rainfall was sufficient
for sowing. After sowing there was a long dry period, which was very critical condition
but it saved guar crop from any disease and pest attack. In mid of cropping season
rainfall was very low but it was on regular interval as per required. In this condition
vegetative growth of plant didn’t effected too much.
Last rainfall was also normal. It was heavy in some part especially in Haryana.
In cotton growing area, due to heavy rainfall and regular irrigation there was condition
of water logging and disease outbreak. But due to short rain fall period, it
improved very fast. There is news of
minor damage against the fear of heavy damage. Guar crop affected least in
adverse climatic conditions. Early sowing crop will be ready to harvest if
weather conditions are clear with high temperature, the crop may mature within 10-15-
days.
Late sowing crop way take time. it may mature around last week of October especially
in rain fed area. Crop is in good condition. Now there is no requirement of
water or rainfall. Crop need clear weather and bit high temperature to mature timely.
