&lt;em&gt;Reeling under intense dry spell, state recorded 49% rain?deficit, says regional?disaster monitoring centre &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Bengaluru: &lt;/em&gt;The Karnataka government on Wednesday declared 156 out of the 176 talukas of the state drought hit in the wake of a failed northeast monsoon. This has added to the growing call for the speedy implementation of the farm loan waiver to mitigate the deepening agrarian distress.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The declaration comes months after several districts of the state were hit by floods and landslides, wiping out thousands of acres of agricultural and rich coffee growing land, and claimed more than 100 human lives, besides several animals.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The Karnataka state natural disaster monitoring centre on Wednesday said the dry spell continued unabated during the northeast monsoon (1 October to 26 December) and the state recorded 49% deficit in rainfall. North interior Karnataka, which accounts for 90% of rabi sowing, recorded a deficit of 66%, it said.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Mint had on 17 December reported that after declaring around 100 talukas as drought-hit in the kharif season, officials had said that at least 20 more administrative units will be added to the list.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Expectations of good rains after a relatively decent southwest monsoon had encouraged farmers to sow as much as 2.603 million hectares, to achieve 81.09% of the target of 3.18 million hectares, for the rabi season.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The drought is also likely to push the state government to implement the farm loan waiver, most of which remains unimplemented till date. Though several parties have made grand announcements of waiving off farm loans, the delay in implementation has been fuelling growing unrest in the farming community across the country. Agrarian distress has become the biggest election issue in recent times, forcing the announcement of short-term interventions such as farm loan and other waivers, especially ahead of next year&amp;rsquo;s Lok Sabha elections.&lt;br /&gt;

This has added to the growing call for the speedy implementation of the farm loan waiver to mitigate the deepening agrarian distress.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The declaration comes months after several districts of the state were hit by floods and landslides, wiping out thousands of acres of agricultural and rich coffee growing land, and claimed more than 100 human lives, besides several animals.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The Karnataka state natural disaster monitoring centre on Wednesday said the dry spell continued unabated during the northeast monsoon (1 October to 26 December) and the state recorded 49% deficit in rainfall. North interior Karnataka, which accounts for 90% of rabi sowing, recorded a deficit of 66%, it said.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Mint had on 17 December reported that after declaring around 100 talukas as drought-hit in the kharif season, officials had said that at least 20 more administrative units will be added to the list.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Expectations of good rains after a relatively decent southwest monsoon had encouraged farmers to sow as much as 2.603 million hectares, to achieve 81.09% of the target of 3.18 million hectares, for the rabi season.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The drought is also likely to push the state government to implement the farm loan waiver, most of which remains unimplemented till date. Though several parties have made grand announcements of waiving off farm loans, the delay in implementation has been fuelling growing unrest in the farming community across the country. Agrarian distress has become the biggest election issue in recent times, forcing the announcement of short-term interventions such as farm loan and other waivers, especially ahead of next year&amp;rsquo;s Lok Sabha elections.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Please &lt;a href=&quot;https://www.livemint.com/Politics/we4v5MvF7mj6ZWG0kiC8gJ/Farm-crisis-deepens-in-Karnataka-156-talukas-declared-droug.html&quot; title=&quot;https://www.livemint.com/Politics/we4v5MvF7mj6ZWG0kiC8gJ/Farm-crisis-deepens-in-Karnataka-156-talukas-declared-droug.html&quot;&gt;click here&lt;/a&gt; to read more. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&#039;

&lt;em&gt;Reeling under intense dry spell, state recorded 49% rain?deficit, says regional?disaster monitoring centre &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Bengaluru: &lt;/em&gt;The Karnataka government on Wednesday declared 156 out of the 176 talukas of the state drought hit in the wake of a failed northeast monsoon. This has added to the growing call for the speedy implementation of the farm loan waiver to mitigate the deepening agrarian distress.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The declaration comes months after several districts of the state were hit by floods and landslides, wiping out thousands of acres of agricultural and rich coffee growing land, and claimed more than 100 human lives, besides several animals.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The Karnataka state natural disaster monitoring centre on Wednesday said the dry spell continued unabated during the northeast monsoon (1 October to 26 December) and the state recorded 49% deficit in rainfall. North interior Karnataka, which accounts for 90% of rabi sowing, recorded a deficit of 66%, it said.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Mint had on 17 December reported that after declaring around 100 talukas as drought-hit in the kharif season, officials had said that at least 20 more administrative units will be added to the list.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Expectations of good rains after a relatively decent southwest monsoon had encouraged farmers to sow as much as 2.603 million hectares, to achieve 81.09% of the target of 3.18 million hectares, for the rabi season.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The drought is also likely to push the state government to implement the farm loan waiver, most of which remains unimplemented till date. Though several parties have made grand announcements of waiving off farm loans, the delay in implementation has been fuelling growing unrest in the farming community across the country. Agrarian distress has become the biggest election issue in recent times, forcing the announcement of short-term interventions such as farm loan and other waivers, especially ahead of next year&amp;rsquo;s Lok Sabha elections.&lt;br /&gt;

<em>Reeling under intense dry spell, state recorded 49% rain?deficit, says regional?disaster monitoring centre <br />
<br />
Bengaluru: </em>The Karnataka government on Wednesday declared 156 out of the 176 talukas of the state drought hit in the wake of a failed northeast monsoon. This has added to the growing call for the speedy implementation of the farm loan waiver to mitigate the deepening agrarian distress.<br />
<br />
The declaration comes months after several districts of the state were hit by floods and landslides, wiping out thousands of acres of agricultural and rich coffee growing land, and claimed more than 100 human lives, besides several animals.<br />
<br />
The Karnataka state natural disaster monitoring centre on Wednesday said the dry spell continued unabated during the northeast monsoon (1 October to 26 December) and the state recorded 49% deficit in rainfall. North interior Karnataka, which accounts for 90% of rabi sowing, recorded a deficit of 66%, it said.<br />
<br />
Mint had on 17 December reported that after declaring around 100 talukas as drought-hit in the kharif season, officials had said that at least 20 more administrative units will be added to the list.<br />
<br />
Expectations of good rains after a relatively decent southwest monsoon had encouraged farmers to sow as much as 2.603 million hectares, to achieve 81.09% of the target of 3.18 million hectares, for the rabi season.<br />
<br />
The drought is also likely to push the state government to implement the farm loan waiver, most of which remains unimplemented till date. Though several parties have made grand announcements of waiving off farm loans, the delay in implementation has been fuelling growing unrest in the farming community across the country. Agrarian distress has become the biggest election issue in recent times, forcing the announcement of short-term interventions such as farm loan and other waivers, especially ahead of next year&rsquo;s Lok Sabha elections.<br />
