SEASONAL AGRO-CLIMATE OUTLOOK FOR DECEMBER 2021-MAY 2022
Khyber Pakhtunkhwa
Upper Khyber Pakhtunkhwa is expected to
receive 2-3 spells of light to moderate
rainfalls during March and 1st decade of
May. During this period, few spells of light
rainfall is also anticipated.
The expected rains would be beneficial till
March as the crop is in vegetative and
reproductive stages. While the wheat crop is
maturing in April and May, rainfall may have
an impact on the crop's eventual output.
• Lower Khyber Pakhtunkhwa is expected to
receive 3 major events of light to moderate
(with spells of heavy downpour during the
end of March and start of April) rainfall from
March till May.
Punjab
The Potohar Region may receive several light to moderate
rainfall spells (with few heavy downpours during 1st decade of
March and 3rd decade of April) during the period.
During February, wheat in the region is generally in reproductive
stages, the rain will benefit it while in April, crop is in grain
formation/final stages, accordingly cloudiness or rain conditions
may cause bad impacts on the crop in terms of dry matter
production.
Central Punjab would receive 3-4 spells of light to moderate
(with few spells of light downpour) rainfall from the end of
February till the end of May.
The rainfall during the early stages of the crop is helpful;
however rainfall during the month of May, when the crop
reaches its maturity, may affect the final yield of the crop.
• Southern Punjab would receive 4-5 mild rainfall episodes (with a
few moderate spells) within the stated time, according to the
general trend.
Rainfall during the season may assist the crop by increasing soil
moisture availability during the reproductive stages of the wheat
crop.View entire presentation
