Udayavani reported that the Udupi district received a substantial rainfall during the last monsoon surge, contrasting with moderate showers in the neighboring Dakshina Kannada.
Meteorological data indicates that rainfall in Udupi ranged from 70-90 mm in key towns, helping replenish groundwater and fertilizing fields, whereas Dakshina Kannada averaged around 30-45 mm.
The good rains benefit local farmers by improving irrigation prospects and reducing heat stress, said a farmer from Kundapura, while a local agronomist noted that moderate levels in Dakshina Kannada could affect early sowing schedules. The rainfall pattern is expected to ease the heat wave and support upcoming crop cycles. Source: Google News – Udupi.
