SEASON AT GKVK STATION | | Author Name : | | | K.N.Krishnamurthy , D.M.Gowda | | Publisher : | | | Ashok Yakkaldevi | | Article Series No. : | | | ROR-2187 | | Article : | |  | Author Profile | | Abstract : | | | Agricultural production in India mainly depends upon the monsoon rainfall. Its timely onset, spread over the country and distribution is important for Kharif crops. One of the traditional ways the farmers of India in general and its southern States in particular study rainfall patterns is through solar constellations called “Nakshatras”. In the present paper, a brief analysis of rainfall based on Nakshatra periods is considered. The daily rainfall data for a period of 30 years from 1984 -2013 was collected from the agro-meteorological centre located at GKVK, Bengaluru.The analysis reveals that the periods from Punarvasu to Chitta which covers the monsoon period received good amount of rainfall during which crops like groundnut, sunflower, maize, finger millet and pulses like redgram, pigeon pea and chick pea can be taken up. Further, the trend in most of the Nakshatra periods was decreasing except Makha and Chitta. This indicates that over the years the total rainfall received during these periods were decreasing. There is a need to draw up a contingency plan to mitigate the proper planning of rainfed crops by farmers. | | Keywords : | | - Nakshatra-wise rainfall,Constellation,Trend analysis of rainfall
