Fair wind: On IMD’s projection of good monsoon<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

A good monsoon will aid agriculture, now one of the few bright spots in the economy<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

If everything aligns, India could see a third consecutive year of surplus rainfall. The IMD has said that monsoon rains will likely be 101% of the Long Period Average (LPA) of 88 cm. In 2020, it was 109% of the LPA and in 2019, 110%. While the forecast 101% LPA is short of (less than)<\/strong> the rainfall received in these years and still within the range of what the IMD considers \u2018normal\u2019 rainfall, it is positive news because the current forecast is \u2018above normal\u2019 rainfall in the core agricultural zone. This zone includes States where agriculture is significantly rain-fed including Madhya Pradesh, Bihar, Odisha and West Bengal. The IMD\u2019s estimate of the distribution of this rainfall also suggests that except for the Northeast, where rainfall is expected to be \u2018below normal\u2019, other regions are expected to get above normal rainfall. A general pattern of the monsoon is that weakened rains over Northeastern India \u2014 which has a higher base rainfall than other parts of India \u2014 translate into stronger rainfall in Central India. Propitious (giving or indicating a good chance of success)<\/strong> rain this year is premised (base an argument, theory, or undertaking on)<\/strong> on forecasts from Indian and global climate models, veering (change direction suddenly)<\/strong> towards no excess sea-surface temperatures at the Equatorial Pacific conditions. There are also \u2018negative\u2019 IOD (Indian Ocean Dipole) conditions over the Indian Ocean during the monsoon season, meaning warmer water and greater precipitation (water that falls to the ground as rain, snow, etc.)<\/strong> in the eastern Indian Ocean. Put together, they mean that these larger climate factors are, as of now, unlikely to have a significant influence over the prevailing monsoon.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"SBI<\/a><\/figure>\n\n\n\n

A good monsoon could aid agriculture which has been among the few bright spots in the Indian economy. Two good years of rains have boosted storage in the key reservoirs (a large natural or artificial lake used as a source of water supply)<\/strong>. However, the flip side (another aspect or version of something, especially its reverse or its unwanted concomitant)<\/strong> of a forecast for a bounteous monsoon is the possibility of flash floods (a sudden local flood, typically due to heavy rain)<\/strong>, landslides and disease outbreaks. In the last year and before it, the IMD had not, in June, warned about the exceptionally high rains. While three consecutive years of above normal rain are exceedingly rare, the IMD itself assigns a 22% probability of it occurring, which is just below the 40% probability of \u2018normal\u2019 rainfall. India is now moving to a system where medium range forecasts, or expected changes in monsoon or larger weather patterns over two weeks, are better captured by the monsoon models deployed. These inputs must be used by the Government to better prepare infrastructure in the eventuality that excessive rains can wipe out (eliminate something completely)<\/strong> the potential gains for agriculture. It may also be worthwhile to encourage farmers to sow higher-value crops than only rice via the MSP route. The favourable tidings (a piece of news)<\/strong> should not be an excuse to abandon caution.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
