IMD – Cumulative rainfall by subdivision across India 1/6/25 – 24/7/25.


India

  • Irregular distribution of monsoon rains continues to be an issue, reports the Times of India. A report yesterday shows that while rainfall in some states is above the long period average (Rajasthan 118%, Madhya Pradesh 57%, Gujarat 48%), many important pulse-producing states are below average (Telangana 22%, Andhra Pradesh 15%, Tamil Nadu 6%, Maharashtra 3%).
  • Green mung bean and black matpe crops have been lost to excess rainfall in the Bundelkhand region across Uttar Pradesh and Madhya Pradesh, according to iGrain. India Meteorological Department (IMD) reports that rainfall in many of the districts in the region was more than three times the average.

Canada

  • Drought conditions in parts of Manitoba are co stressing crops like field peas, according to the Manitoba Cooperator.
  • Discover Moosejaw reports that lentils, peas, and chickpeas "are faring somewhat better" than canola and mustard crops in Saskatchewan, but that drought continues to cause "concerns about yield potential across all crops" in the province.

Australia
