Guar Status in Haryana

Guar acreage in Haryana was targeted about 3 lakh ha for Kharif season 2015-16.  During this Monsoon season, rainfall in Haryana is 38 percent deficient. This rainfall deficiency has affected several crops in the State. We at WeatherSys monitor Guar crop growth vis-à-vis the actual weather and weather forecast on day to day basis. We also gather ground information on the status of the crop and associated weather in major growing districts.  In this report, we have collected ground information of Guar crop status in several districts in Haryana. 

In Rewari, due to long dry spell of about more than a month, most of the Guar crop in rainfed fields have been finished.  Crop-week no. 35-37 (24th Aug to 7th Sept) has been driest weeks in Guar crop cycle. Now many farmers are planning to grow Mustard and Wheat in coming Rabi season if it rains well in coming weeks.  WeatherSys predicts moderate rainfall on 22nd and 23rd September.

Presently, the crop is at seed formation stage. Green caterpillar has been noticed in several place of the district which caused Lat disease in Guar. Farmers are applying insecticide to control it.  Light to moderate rainfall is expected on 22nd and 23rd September.

Bacterial leaf blight disease has been observed in the crop at several place in the district. High humidity and warm weather could have favored BLB in the crop and it affects yield adversely. Farmers are trying to control it by applying pesticides. Light to moderate rainfall is likely over the district on 22nd and 23rd September.
