Abstract

The probabilities of getting optimum sowing rains for long, medium and short duration varieties of ragiin Bangalore district were analysed on the basis of daily rainfall records often taluk rain gauge stations. The study reveals that the farmer cannot depend upon the same duration variety all the years and they have to choose a variety depending upon the date of receipt of sowing rains under dry land conditions. In general, it was found that sowing will be a considerable problem in southern parts of Bangalore district, comprising of Channapatna Ramanagaram and Kanakapura taluks.
