The drought has severely impacted farmers in Pune district, with 65% of the kharif crop acreage damaged. Over 3.18 lakh hectares of farmland have been affected, leading to reduced yields of key crops like soybean, maize, and paddy. Farmers are struggling to manage daily expenses and prepare for the next agricultural cycle. While ₹164.27 crore has been disbursed to 3,28,542 farmers, some are still awaiting assistance due to technical issues such as incorrect bank details. The ongoing crop-loss assessment will determine further compensation, but the current situation has left many farmers in financial distress.
