Many villages in the mandals of these two districts have not received enough rain so far for sowing. In many areas, the seeds have not been able to germinate due to lack of sufficient moisture. Therefore, farmers will have to sow twice. Crops that grow due to lack of moisture in the soil need rain. The rain that occurred last week has given life to the crops. In the areas where sowing has been done, farmers are waiting for heavy rain.
