Beed farmers are pleading with the government to take urgent action against a severe drought threatening their crops. The Shetkari Hakk Morcha has demanded the immediate implementation of cloud-seeding operations to salvage the soybean, cotton, and tur crops. Farmers like Rajendra Amte, a local activist, lamented that the prolonged dry spell has already led to immense financial losses.
Amte explained that farmers have already spent large sums on seeds, fertilizers, and other agricultural inputs, only to witness their crops wither. If the government fails to act promptly, farmers may face complete devastation. Amte emphasized that cloud-seeding should be conducted before rainfall becomes critical, in order to save crops, prevent water scarcity, and ensure fodder for livestock.
