The primary reason for the reduced sown area is the failure of the monsoon in the month of June and of its smooth progression in July in most parts of the country

There is 13.27 per cent less area under paddy in 2022, compared to last year, even as the sowing of paddy was completed by the end of July in most parts of the country. Paddy is one of the main food grains grown in the kharif season that starts in June and ends in October.

Some 23.15 million hectares (mha) of paddy had been sown by July 29, 2022, according to data released by the Union agriculture ministry. This is 3.55 mha less than what was sown in 2021 during the corresponding period.

The gap between paddy acreage in 2022 and in the ‘normal’ area under paddy by July end is much more — at 41.6 per cent. ‘Normal’ sown area for this time of the sowing season is 39.7 mha.

The target area under paddy for 2022 was higher, at 41.31 mha. The primary reason for the reduced sown area is the failure of the monsoon in the month of June and of its smooth progression in July in most parts of the country.
