Sahibganj News: Continuous storms and rainfall over the past two days have severely impacted farmers across the district. While mango and litchi crops saw slight benefits, the weather proved disastrous for wheat, gram, lentil, pea, mustard, and maize cultivation.
Strong winds have damaged crops across hundreds of acres, with wheat and maize fields flattened in many areas. Farmers have been visiting their fields since morning, only to return disheartened as standing crops lie completely collapsed.
With their primary source of income destroyed, farmers now fear an economic crisis and are demanding compensation from authorities. The situation is particularly alarming in Sahibganj and Rajmahal blocks, especially in diara regions, where large-scale crop losses have been reported.
